Changes (1) x A-A at botton of Temple B stairway on line with drain (south side). A-A are full width of street apart: 5 m, not 2 (pp. 26 + 30 plans). Extend to Ξ/ along inner lines of street and to W 12, E 12.

(2) at Ξ/ extend to Ω-B' changing orientation to fit west inner line of street. Ξ = Ξ/ + B'-B' 4 m apart. To W 12 only (not east)

x should A-A be a bit further north then at present? At any rate so Ξ/ will coincide with Tr. 9 H 32. See also for location of A-A of Str. 1 p234 (plan)
