Roman Agora
In adjacent areas to the east of the Roman Propylon , a building complex has been found, which was possibly used as a grain warehouse. Moreover, a part of the paved road of the Roman Agora has been found with 8m width and smaller buildings on either side, probably part of a commercial district. Of interest are the large clay jars, which are on the left and right of the excavation.
Inscription in honor of Emperor Hadrian. It was found at Agios Charalambos beach in the narthex of the Early Christian basilica and is kept in the Archaeological Museum of Komotini. It is a rectangular marble pedestal, of one meter height and approximately seventy cm width. It is dated in 131 AD, and therefore can be connected with the tour of the Roman emperor in the cities of Thrace and the corresponding attribution of gratitude and honors to him from the Maronites, after the known favorable attitude, that Hadrian showed towards their demands, with regards to the city’s benefits.
