Recent Excavation

When we visited Stobi in May 2008, there was a recent excavation.

The new excavation is east of the Civil Basilica.

If you know what they're digging up here, please let me know!

basilica foundation

This should be plural as they have discovered the foundations of TWO basilicae here. Unfortunately there is not currently enough money to finish the excavation.

An interesting archaelogical "bit"

This seems to be the bottom of a column. Inside the circle you see a snake emerging from a cross. This was the insignia for the "asclepion" -- or healing center.
