The Christian basilica is located in the eastern part of a small islet known as Illa del Rei, in the center of the port of Maò (Menorca). At the end of the 19th century, a mosaic was discovered. M.L. Serra excavated the site in the 60’s of the 20th century revealing the presence of a church covered by mosaics, several rooms, a stybadium, deposits, and a courtyard or open space. The recent archaeological investigation aims to re-excavated the site and the restoration of the structures.
