ANNUARIO della SCUOLA ARCHEOLOGICA DI ATENE e delle MISIONI ITALIANE IN ORIENTE, 2021

in 1985, on the Central Plateau of the Pyrgi hill, the acropolis of the ancient city (Sector II-Central). An Archaic temple and
an imposing Tetraconch, a few meters further N, were brought to light during the excavations. Although the initial use and date
of the construction of the Tetraconch remains unclear, it was converted into a church in the 7th century. These buildings seem to
have formed landmarks of Eleutherna’s acropolis during different phases of its history, demonstrating the enduring public nature
of this topos which was directly connected to the political and religious functions of the city down the centuries. Their architectural
remains, amongst which stands out the thesauros of the temple with its sophisticated and mechanically innovative cover and
locking device, along with other vestiges, including ritual depositions of feasting remains and votives, are presented here in detail
for the first time. Through their study, we will try to explore the continuities and disruptions in the sacred topography of the
acropolis at Εleutherna and to set them within the broader socio-political context of their time.

of the years 2013-2016 on the Central Plateau of the Acropolis of
Eleutherna. It is the continuation of the account of the results published
in Πρακτικά του Αρχαιολογικού Έργου Κρήτης 3. The article is divided into three parts, according to where the excavation was focused:
a. The Byzantine Quarter (southern sector) – Roman bath. On the
southern part of the Central Plateau architectural structures related
to the Byzantine district of the 7th and 8th centuries were revealed.
As evident from the work of previous years, the Byzantine buildings
were built on the ruins of a public bath of Roman times. The account
examines in detail the buildings discovered east of a road running
parallel to that of the fortification wall on the east slope. Where excavation went deep enough, areas of the bath were discovered (such as an area with a hypocaust).
b. Christian church. Excavation continued with the investigation of the
surrounding area of the church on the Central Plateau: east of the
apse of the sanctuary, where under an extensive layer of destruction
a burial of importance was found.
c. The enclosing fortifications. The trials made at the base of wall on the
east slope revealed that the fortifications of the early Byzantine period
were set directly on the natural bedrock. No foundation trench was
found. The western slope of the Acropolis was extensively cleaned to
document the fortification located on a lower terrace just below the
excavated area of the Central Plateau. Part of a fortified enclosure
about 50 m long was discovered, in which two construction phases
can be clearly distinguished: one probably of the Hellenistic period
and one of the early Byzantine period.
A particularly important numismatic find is presented in a separate
section. This is an early Islamic fals, minted in Egypt in the first decades
of the 8th century. Thus, it dates back to before the Arab conquest of
Crete. This is one of only a few examples of 8th century Arabic issues
found on the island, and the only one found during a systematic excavation.
