- Although there is one fragment of glazed Syrian ware of the 13th c., this may be an intrusion -- since the other 176 sherds collected from this later all provide a 10th-11th c. date. Coins include locally minted coin of Basil II and Constantine VIII (1016-1025), two locally minted coins of Basil I (867-886), one coin possibly of Justinianic date
