faptul că necropolele din sectorul menţionat se concentrează în<br />

imediata ei apropiere, numărul lor descrescând proporţional<br />

spre S. Ca şi în cazul situaţiei constatate pe latura de N a<br />

aceleiași basilici, se observă un număr mult mai mare al<br />

mormintelor aparţinând primei necropole (anterioare basilicii)<br />

decât celei de-a doua, contemporane cu basilica. Deocamdată<br />

pentru cele două secţiuni noi nu s-a ajuns la o adâncime care<br />

să ne permită constatarea prezenţei nisipului aferent existenţei<br />

zonei portuare, însă scăderea concentraţiei de morminte ar<br />

putea indica acest lucru. Continuarea cercetărilor <strong>arheologice</strong> în<br />

această zonă, combinate cu cele efectuate în sectorul Sud 15 ,<br />

sperăm să aducă un plus de informaţie legată de posibilele<br />

limite ale necropolelor din zonă şi a amplasamentului portului<br />

oraşului greco-roman Histria.<br />

Abstract<br />

The main aim of the <strong>2010</strong> archaeological campaign<br />

was to continue the archaeological excavations in trenches<br />

S1/2008 and S2/2009 (trenches opened on the southern side of<br />

the extra muros early Christian basilica) and also to extend the<br />

investigated area southwards at about 50 m from the above<br />

mentioned trenches in order to establish the limit of the Late<br />

Roman necropolis and the possible place where the Greco-<br />

Roman harbour was erected.<br />

In trenches S1/2008 and S2/2009 three inhumation<br />

graves were uncovered (all being oriented on a West-East axis)<br />

and situated approximately in the centre of the surface<br />

constituted by the two mentioned trenches. Two of the tombs<br />

presented some special features regarding their construction:<br />

71<br />

M6/<strong>2010</strong> – a roof like arrangement in two slopes made out of<br />

tiles; M4/2009 – lateral niche on the southern side closed with<br />

tiles carefully arranged in a vertical position. In the case of the<br />

third tomb (M3/2008), a wooden coffin sealed using iron nails<br />

was documented during its investigation. Regarding the<br />

funerary inventory we can assess that only M4/2009 presented<br />

a glass paste bead necklace and a pendant made out of a<br />

reused bronze coin. All three graves belong to the first<br />

necropolis documented in the area of the Basilica extra muros,<br />

a necropolis that can be dated between the second half of the<br />

4 th century and the first half of the 5 th century A.D. The<br />

archaeological excavations that are still unfinished reached until<br />

now a depth of about -1.50 m.<br />

At about 1.50 m south of trenches S1/2008 and<br />

S2/2009 a new trench was opened, designated with the code<br />

S1A/<strong>2010</strong> (dimensions 15 x 2m). During the investigation of this<br />

new trench, two more tombs were documented out of which<br />

only one was archaeologically investigated (= M20/<strong>2010</strong>, an<br />

inhumation tomb belonging to a new born carefully arranged<br />

inside a reused amphora and having no funerary inventory).<br />

Under the level corresponding to the necropolis, a large building<br />

(10.80 x 1.50-1.80 m) having its walls made out of stone and<br />

yellowish clay was uncovered. Two rooms were documented for<br />

this building so far. During this archaeological campaign the<br />

excavation reached a depth of about -1.15 m representing the<br />

construction level for the above mentioned building. Judging by<br />

the general stratigraphy of the site and also based on the data<br />

collected from this trench we can assess as a working<br />

hypothesis that the building should be dated during the 3 rd and<br />

the beginning of the 4 th century A.D.<br />

At approximately 1.50 m south of trench S1A/<strong>2010</strong><br />

another trench was opened, namely S1B/<strong>2010</strong> (dimensions 15 x<br />

2m) which reached a depth of about -0.95 m. So far, this trench<br />

provided only two archaeological features respectively a wall<br />

built out of stones and yellowish clay oriented on a East-West<br />

axis (probably belonging to the 6 th century A.D.) and another<br />

corner of a building (built in the same construction techniques<br />

as the edifice documented in trench S1A/<strong>2010</strong>) oriented on a<br />

North-South axis. This last feature could be part of the same<br />

building found in trench S1A/<strong>2010</strong> or possibly a part of another<br />

one, very similar to the previous, an aspect that the future<br />

excavations projected for this year will try to establish.<br />
