 The fort at Phylla, Vrachos : excavations and researches at a late archaic fort in central Euboea
Authors:E. Sapouna-Sakellarakē, J. J. Coulton, Ingrid R. Metzger, British School at Athens

Full presentations of the excavation and architecture by J. J. Coulton and of the pottery by I. Metzger provide the basis for a detailed examination of the evidence for garrison life in the late archaic period, about which written sources are virtually silent. The archaeological context of the fort, in the border area between Eretria and Chalkis, is presented by E. Sakellaraki, former Ephor of Euboea, and a final chapter brings out the historical significance of the site.
