Summary (English)

  • The 2017 campaign continued the excavation of sector D and checked several anomalies identified by geophysical survey and drone images on the ground, which led to the opening of two new areas – sectors G and F.

    The excavation along the east side of sector D aimed to investigate the eastward extension of the dwelling associated with the entrance identified in 2015-2016. The south wall was followed for c. 6 m exposing part of the primary collapse of the perimeter wall. However, it was not possible to reach the structure’s eastern edge before the end of the excavation campaign.
    The opening of three new quadrants along the western side of the excavation area revealed a new row of stones belonging to another terrace wall, slightly out of axis with the others.

    The excavation continued of the structure built of small slabs of biancone stone identified during previous campaigns, but still not investigated in depth as it continued into the west section of the excavation area. Following the extension of the area, a quadrangular structure was uncovered. Aligned north-west/south-east, it was built of small squared slabs, of which at least three/four courses were present. Towards the south, the structure had been removed, probably as the result of a modern trench; therefore, the complete perimeter could not be identified.
