I am placing at S 4.50, E 19.50 (Trench 11 system). This stratum lay over bedrock and contains late Roman sherds. No trace of the portico floor has been found in this area. No finds in 3.

[margin left: N.W. OF ROOM 3 OF S.E. BLDG FILL OVER PLASTER FLOOR - MR. HILL'S TRIAL TRENCHES] Mr. Hill dug small trial trench in room n.w. of room 3 of S.E. Bldg, 0-70 north of south wall and 0.00- 0.00 0.40 above plaster floor. Removed from here handful of sherds - no tiles. Appears to be fill - not debris reddish soil with many rough stones from fist to bucket size. Judging from the level of this floor, it would appear to ante date the portico of the South Bldg. Am numbering this "bag 1" Remaing c/80 sherds in 1 another bag - bag 2 from small trial trenches in same fill along east and west walls of same room. Floor has not been reached here. 2 tile frags only - from near west wall of room. This may not have been a room any more when the S. Bldg was constructed when its walls probably were levelled off to take the portico floor. Tiles thrown out.
