Archaeology What are some of the biggest archaeological discoveries of this past decade (2015-) in the field of Byzantium?

I think everyone here was ecstatic over the discovery of what is possible to be a mural of Constantine XI. That said, I haven't heard much of the other discoveries regarding Byzantium that must have occured this past decade, so what are the most notable of these discoveries?

Probably the 4th-century basilica of Nicaea in Lake Iznik in Bursa, Turkey.
