Description In a field 150 m. North of Examilia-Kyras Vrysi road, a field team discovered a significant concentration of artifacts, mainly finewares, eroding from a low, crumbling road-cut North scarp of a dirt road. No stratigraphy was discernible, but it appeared that something like a pit had been dug into the ground at this point; there is a slight depression, not explicable as a natural feature, in the ground above. Pottery includes much Classical objects and some later material. Some pottery suggests burning. We suggest that it may be material ritually deposited in a bothros.
