T1 AK

The trench was T1 AK was cleaned in order to define the extension of the walls. It became clear that the two walls running north are connected by a crosswall, with the same construction and width, 1.10m. For measurements, see plan p. 200 . The crosswall runs along the lenth of the trench, leaving a space to the western trench edge of 50-60cm, where very few small pieces of tiles were found, and a section of the eastern end,

gird K-L 1-2 (ca. 2x2m) where tiles seemed to appear in a heavy concentration (see p. 189, August 2). 1 box of tiles were dumped from over the wall.

were attached and the flat part which has at least two raised finished edges. The width measured 56 cm. However, the strigils found, the two heads, the parts of two rosettes and three waterspouts (19680643), would hardly be enough to decorate the sima-tiles found in this pocket. The pieces coming from below the upper layer of sima and tiles were less well preserved, even crumbling, and were fitted in between stones. In the eastern end of the trench there seemed to be a continuation of the northgoing wall, and in the area east and west of it there were some tiles and a few scattered stones. From grid F1-2 and further towardsthe west there were some
