The store operated during the time when the Roman Empire controlled the region. It was found in the ancient city of Sikyon, located on the northern coast of the Peloponnese.

In southern Greece, in the ancient city of Sikyon, archaeologists have discovered a 1,600-year-old Roman-era wine store. It was reported by Arkeonews.

Researchers also discovered scattered coins and remains of marble tabletops and vessels made of bronze, glass and ceramics, providing insight into the last moments of the ancient establishment.

Archaeological excavations have also helped to find an entire complex that housed a liquor store. There are many factories with ovens and installations for pressing grapes or olives.

According to Scott Gallimore, most of the coins found date from the period of Constantius II, which lasted from 337 to 361. The last coin in the collection was made between 355 and 361. However, despite the large number of finds , it is still difficult for researchers to identify the specific types of wines sold in this establishment.

What is known is that the larger complex, including the store, appears to have been abandoned in the early 5th century, probably around the same time as the destructive event.

The damage can be caused by an earthquake or possibly a roof collapse caused by natural factors such as excessive rainfall.

The study was led by a team led by Scott Gallimore of Wilfrid Laurier University and Martin Wells of Austin College.

It was previously reported that in the Amazon rainforest, archaeologists discovered a large lost ancient city more than two thousand years old.

In Denmark, archaeologists found a knife with ancient runes.
