According to the excavator the shaft had been cleaned out at some period and then used as a vothros over a long time (p. 1874). Despite the general paucity of the well fill (only 21 tins of pottery from -7.00m to bottom), a rather large number of amphorae, micaceous water jars and other handled containers were represented among the sherds and some stratification is apparent. The well might for some reason have been used only sparingly or it might have been equipped with a metal bucket which was used in preference to clay jars on most occasions.
