What is Excavations at Stobi, 1971 about?

The second campaign of the new excavations at Stobi in Macedonia by the University of Texas at Austin and the National Museum of Titov Veles contributed significantly to the study of the history of the ancient city.' Moreover, excavation of the Baptistery of the Episcopal Basilica (infra, Sections 8-9) indicates a somewhat unexpected grandeur at Stobi in the early Christian period; it also raises questions about liturgy in the churches of Macedonia. The project is sponsored by the Smithsonian Institution and, again, most of the funds were provided through its Foreign Currency Program.2 Excavation in I97I1 began 24 May and ended in most areas on 31 July. Work in the east parodos of the Theater, however, continued until 6 August and the Baptistery was not completely cleared until 13 August. 2. THE SITE Mapping of the ancient city and its environs has progressed enough to publish a portion of it (ill. I). The plan presented here includes most of the buildings discovered in previous excavations as well as those in the new areas, but in both cases only in the west and central parts of the city.4 The basis of the survey is a 2 m. grid generated from a datum point in the Central Fountain
