As was stated in the Annual Report for the Session 1927–28, the excavations at Sparta in 1928 were on quite a small scale, lasting only three weeks, and were restricted to the following pieces of work :—at the Theatre we cleared up some fallen material, undertook some necessary conservation and tested a few points for the purpose of the plan; and at the Orthia Sanctuary we tidied up some fallen rubble-masonry, during which process we uncovered a small portion of the early votive deposit underlying the foundations of the Roman amphitheatre to the south of the limits reached in the excavations of 1906–10. Apart from the discovery of another columnar statue-base of a βωμονίκης, which I have since published elsewhere, the finds from the site need not be further discussed.
