| description | The paper discusses the results of the first season of research undertaken to establish anddocument the architectural stratification of the residential quarter in Jiyeh (ancient Porphyreon).The research was started on a separate complex of 14 rooms. Three phases of building developmentin the late Roman and early Byzantine periods were distinguished. Evidence was found ofthe division of this complex into three houses. Remains of stairways identified in two of the housesproved the existence of double-storey buildings. In the northern house of the complex, the layoutof recesses and corbels preserved in the walls suggests the presence of a wooden gallery, communicatingat ground level with rooms on the upper floor. This paper presents also some preliminaryremarks on the functional division of the houses. |
