Ο υδάτινος κόσμος της Ερέτριας: τα λουτρά της αρχαίας πόλης: παλιά και νέα δεδομένα

Abstract

During the excavation conducted for the new water supply in Eretria, a new loutron was discovered in 2010. This new find, located near the agora of ancient Eretria, is north of the tholos monument (Eunomou Kifisiou road, O.T. 706). The loutron was found thanks to a mosaic made with natural stone, situated in the centre of its floor. The loutron is also surrounded by nine loutyres, which were found in situ, and it was designed to serve maximum of twenty people. Some pottery was found at the site, as well as a Hellenistic bronze coin. The loutron was probably constructed between the end of the 4th century and the middle of the 3rd century BC.
