Description: | Courtyard Well (R/15-13/20). The well went out of use as a result of the Herulian sack of 267 A.D. in the upper part of the well the well-head itself was found, one of the finest in the Agora collection. The block was clearly reused and seems originally to date to the Hellenistic period. | |
