At Gerokambos area to the west of Lendas in 1959 three vaulted tombs were found, with the largest (diameter 5.10m) looted and empty. In front of the entrance, a hall was full of people and animal bones, charcoal and cups.

In a second tomb figurines, daggers, vases, seals and beads were found. At a nearby site, in 1981, a large building of the Roman period was found that probably operated as a mansion.
