Abstract

A fine Roman portrait bust was found by chance at Knossos in July 1971, when a trench was being dug by a mechanical excavator in the field to the north of the Villa Ariadne, an area which probably formed part of the better residential quarter of Roman Knossos. It was discovered beneath a thick Roman concrete floor, which was visible in the side of the trench about 1 metre below the present-day ground level. It is now in the museum at Herakleion.
