    Archaeology always has a certain element of surprise and luck connected to it, for it is unpredictable to divine what lies directly under the surface upon which one is standing. So it was in the 1980s east of the Roman theater in Corinth. The American School of Classical Studies at Athens decided to investigate the unexplored fields lying east of the theater, if for no other reason than to make the area more attractive to tourists interested in visiting the site. As was expected, beneath a heavy cover of weeds, rocks, and earthquake debris that had accumulated over the centuries, standing walls started to reveal themselves.
