The coordinates of the site are 40°07′36″N 44°11′11″E. The convenient location, fertile soil and favourable climatic conditions allowed people to develop their activities in this territory from very ancient times.The site has, over time, developed around several volcanic hills. The left-bank tributaries of the Metsamor River originate at the artesian springs at the foot of those hills. The site is conventionally named after the river.

Recent investigations in the ancient town, focused on a district in the northwestern part of the site, have uncovered more evidence of potential earthquake-related destruction in a small public bathhouse (H.39) and a building of still unspecified function (H.40) located further to the east. Apart from obvious wall cracking and floor decomposition, as well as evidence of violent fires (attributed at least in one case to the second half of the 2nd century AD), the author has also observed differences in wall construction techniques, possibly chronologically discrete, that could be explained by a desire on the part of the ancient builders to protect buildings against the effe...

The present paper analyses the urban layout and plan of the settlement. The main hypothesis proposed here is based on the results of excavations conducted on the site since 1986. Thanks to the observations from the field, in addition to analyses of the already excavated structures, it was possible to reconstruct the street system and divide the urban space into three zones: the coastal zone (port area), the residential quarters, and the necropolis. All of them were situated on three natural terraces. The northern part, located along the seashore, was occupied by the port and warehouses. On the second terrace, wealthy residential quarters with a relatively large bathhouse complex were spread along the coast. Finally, a large necropolis with several types of monumental tombs created a border between the town and the ...
