ABRITUS (Galena Radoslavova – galena_rz@abv.bg, Georgi Dzanev) A sunken-floored house of the middle of the 10th century was discovered along the southern wall of the Large Basilica and its Diaconicon. A room was explored to the southwest of the Large Basilica, built in rubble masonry and partly situated under the walls of the basilica. The finds dated to AD 350 – 450 and included 155 bronze coins minted from Constantius II to Theodosius II and Valentinian III. A second sunken-floored house of the middle of the 10th century was discovered in the eastern part of the sector. The southwestern corner of a room built in mortared rubble was explored under the sunken-floored house. It was partly overlain by the southern wall of the Diaconicon of the Large Basilica. The pottery from the room dated to the second half of the 4th century AD. Trampled rubble from the construction of the Large Basilica was discovered along its southern wall, containing fragmentary bricks and architectural details and sherds of the second half of the 5th century AD. The apse of a basilica was discovered close to the inner side of the eastern fortification wall. Part of it was cut by the fortification wall. A lid from a reliquary and two folles of Constantine the Great minted in AD 313 – 314 and AD 330 – 335 were found to the north of the apse.
