… the catastrophe on floor II from the area west of room IX (and X) (Pl. XXI,2) to that to the north ( Pl. XXI, 1).
The stratification in the area of the well (squares E-H 10) and in that west of room XIII( squares I-M 10) calls for no special comment. In the first the slabs paving the well area are overlaid by a thickness of red soil which is at the level of floor II in room XIII. On this red soil rests a thick layer of decomposed pisé which marks the destruction which occurred on floor II. In the area west of room XIII the succession of floors noticed in the same area somewhat to the south (see section CC, squares I- [handwritten: ∧] and part of Θ 14) is not equally clear here. In squares [handwritten: ∧] -M 10 we notice a floor which is the continuation of floor III in the above mentioned squares. The level at which the bronze figure of an ox (60 On Pl. LXX) was found (square I-K 10) may be floor II, for on it lies a thick layer of decomposed pisé.
