Pigi Athinas

[1] There is evidence of the presence of humans since the first half of the 7th millennium BC (Early Neolithic period).

[3][4] The burial mounds date from the period 1620-1500 BC; the tumuli were circular or elliptical and consisted of large pebbles, probably from the nearby river.

The cemetery is located in the immediate vicinity of a Roman farmhouse and was created in the first half of the 4th century AD.

Dating from the time of the Ottoman rule, a water pipe was found near by the necropolis.

The archaeological site is today largely under the route of the highway Patras, Athens, Thessaloniki, Evzonoi.
