to entered from room west of large it must have been at this height and as there seems not no floor below first floor, the original level of the room in connection with the palace or bath must have been this high, as and as the soil is the same all the way across, it seems probable that the floor room must have extended all the way across. However, it may be that room Beta extended from south north wall to south wall of room Gamma.
