Camp II","","","Excavations continued in sections ΒΖ and ΒΘ in and under the Classical Commercial Building, the Painted Stoa, and the orthostate enclosure suggested to be the Leokoreion.; ; In section ΒΖ the goal was to find out more about the later Archaic remains, perhaps houses or shops, underlying the Classical building. Pottery of the 8th century B.C. and the discovery of another well suggest that the area was used for habitation in the Iron Age after centuries as a burial ground. A number of ostraka were found in Persian destruction fills, and a fragment of a small gravestone of the 4th century, probably of a slave, was discovered.; ; In Section ΒΘ West, two trenches were opened to examine part of the floor of the Stoa Poikile beneath the late Byzantine houses. In the western trench, fragments of a Roman inscription were found. In the area further east, rubble walls of the late Roman period and other disturbances have destroyed most of the original stoa floor.; ; In Section ΒΘ East, three new inscriptions were revealed on the sides of the large statue base built into the Roman tank. The statue which stood on the base was probably of some importance. The inscriptions on all three blocks in the enclosure suggest that their original location was in an nearby area in the care of the tribe Leontis, the Leokoreion.","Athenian Agora; Excavation Summary for 2021","Agora:Report:2021 Excavations","14 Jun-6 Aug 2021","","Report","2021 Excavations","" "","Agora","Agora:Image:1999.01.0001::/Agora/1999/1999.01/1999.01.0001.tif::2126::1401","John McK. Camp II","Checked","","Most of the work this season was concentrated in the northern half of Section ΒΖ where the Byzantine levels were further explored. Street walls along both sides of the north-south road were revealed and part of three houses were uncovered. Several built pithoi were found within the houses, representing impressive storage capacity. A small hoard of copper coins dates the houses to the 11th century A.D. when the area after two centuries of abandonment became densely populated.; In Section ΒΕ excavation continued in the Classical commercial building where another pyre was discovered. A well was uncovered and was partly dug. It was filled with debris dating to the 2nd and 3rd quarter of the 5th c. B.C. More work was also done on two Mycenaean tombs.","Preliminary Report on the 1999 Excavation Season","Agora:Report:1999 Excavations","7 Jun-30 Jul 1999","","Report","1999 Excavations","" "","Agora","Agora:ReportPage:1999-Excavations-3::/Agora/Reports/1999 Excavations/1999 Excavations 003.jpg::1552::2048","","","","1999 Excavations","Burial","Agora:ReportPage:1999-Excavations-3","July 1999","","ReportPage","1999 Excavations, s. 3","" "","Agora","Agora:ReportPage:2021-Excavations-1::/Agora/Reports/2021 Excavations/2021 Excavations 001.jpg::2199::3390","","","","2021 Excavations","2021 Excavations; Athenian Agora Excavations Summary for 2021","Agora:ReportPage:2021-Excavations-1","14 June-6 August 1921","","ReportPage","2021 Excavations, s. 1",""
