DIARY. 2578 S. Bldg. cor 4 2517-3 cont.

sherd belongs to a class. that does not occur in sealed deposits ante-dating the construction of the S. Bldg (101 AD.). No doubt but that sherd was found here. Either the sherd is earlier than seems possible or else there was another floor, laid in 101 AD, which was dug into at some later period and the hole was sealed up by another floor the remains of which we still have. 4 tile frags which I have place just west of entrance to col quit, with one piece of lime wall plaster. Sherds placed in box.
