Stratum:   Minyan Court II, following two walls
Notes:   Minyan Court
We dug a trench southward from the center of the south end of the court in order to follow two walls which had been found yesterday running north and south thru the center of the court. See plan pg. 43. The wall to the east is well made of several courses of stone, the one to the west is of one course only. The better wall extends south as far as the pavement or road which I mention at top of page 46 and then turns westward. Two levels were observed in this trench each of 25 cm. The pottery is mainly Minyan.
The second one course wall seems to merge into a cobble stone pavement about 4 cm lower than pavement of pebbles. See plan pg. 43. Under this pavement I found the greater part of a large coarse pot.
[James-Nakassis: these levels are below B 31; the pebble pavement = NB 83 B 150]
[p. 52 5 July 1916]
The trench at north end of Minyan Court had uncovered, as I said on page 51, a wall running north and south, on closer examination I came to the conclusion that we have here the remains of a Minyan house at a lower level than F and like F it appears to have an apse. See plan page 43. These walls are well made and evidently are of a good period.
