a wall (5) of rubble appears, partly flush with Floor IV, forming here perhaps a a threshold of a door 1,10 w. The baulk (6) of Floor I, at 0,50, left in the SE corner prevents for the moment from fol- sou lowing the wall (5) towards the S.

To the S of wall (1) we have left a large baulk (6) of Floor II (or II?) at 0,70, well indicated by numerous sherds of plaster and large grains of lime and lenses of grey ash,. It abuts against wall (1) to the N and stops for the moment in the cut face of the trench.

Pt. 1463Wall (3) in the p. d. t. abuts to the S against a large E-W wall, well built of large rubble. Against this wall, and parallel with it one uncovers on 26.10.66 the remains of a one human skeleton at 0,90 then so below Floor II.
