Summary (English)

  • During this season the excavations were located in the area S18 and S16. In the area S16 were observed two monuments, the altar 16 and the temple 6. Nearby the altar 16 was discovered another altar which was given the number 25. Its pavement was made by fragments of bricks, tiles and stone. Behind the monument was noticed a grave constructed by tiles which was directed toward the road. It was also discovered another grave constructed with stone slabs. As regard to the temple, it seems to have had three phases of construction. In the area S18 were discovered three other graves. Two of them were of capucino type whereas the third one was constructed entirely by tiles. The finds were small in number and consisted mostly by pottery object.
