The ruins of a 300-square-meter second-century AD "commander's house" were found during work on the centrally-located Amba Aradam-Ipponio station for the Metro C, where archeologists two years ago had also made the discovery of 1,800-year-old army barracks. It is assumed to be where the barracks' commander used to live and relax after work.
The entire structure - featuring rich mosaics and wall decorations, as well as 14 rooms, including a bathhouse with underfloor heating - will be dismantled to allow for boring work on underground tunnels. Once the tunnels are complete, the findings will be put back where they were, as they were1.
