Description: | Well (diameter 0.91m, water level -7m) in House H, Room 10 (and pit over). Plain shaft cut in stereo; pit at mouth of well,reused as drainage pit at start of tile drain running west. Scanty use filling at bottom; above this, a broken bedrock fill and above that a dumped filling. The upper part of the well was lined with tiles in the second half of the 4th. c. for use as a collecting basin for a water system, a channel of which entered the well shaft. This system was abandoned and the pit filled probably in the 3rd. c. a) use and lower dumped filling (425-400 B.C.) b) Filling behind tiles (450-400 B.C.) c) Abandonment filling (3rd c. B.C.) | |
Contents: | P 18993 came partly from behind the tiles and partly from the well-filling just below, no doubt disturbed by the tiling operation. P 18400, although found in the drain channel, appears to be a good 5th c. collar rim type,and was perhaps dislodged in this same disturbance. | |
