Raport arheologic: Histria/Istria/comuna: Istria/județul: Constanța/punct: Cetate (2009)

In 2009 we have extended S006 eastwards, which has led to the discovery of a Greek wall (context 6014) that may belong to the Archaic or Classical structure named CG5. Also, the apse of Basilica 2 is flanked by northwards projections of the defense wall, which suggests that the church was built using this mass of masonry as a support. In S022 we have continued our research of the Hellenistic limestone platform identified last year (context 22006) and discovered that it was mostly destroyed in Antiquity, rending us unable to pronounce ourselves on its precise functionality. We have managed to lay down an almost complete precise plan of all the structures in the sector, which implied primary research on all structures visible on the surface. This led to the identification of a Roman building (CR3) located north-west of the basilica and aligned to the first phase of the street (d2), of a second one (CR4), located west the basilica and aligned to the defense wall and a third one (CR 5) located immediately west of the basilica and again aligned to the street.
