Stratum: | North Alley VI | |
Notes: | VI = 100-120 Fair amount of sherds, but pretty coarse. At this last level we came upon a good floor also a wall forming an apse. Whether the sides of the apse run north and south or east and west I can not tell as yet. As the floor seemed too high to be the floor belonging to the apse I went on thru it. [James-Nakassis: presumably this "apse" is the curved wall shown on Dinsmoor’s plan. The connection between the North Alley and NB 83 B 74 (see page 28) is very confusing. According to Scott’s records, he dug a trench westward from the center of the west wall of Shore House: this is exactly where the North Alley is. Moreover, Scott reports a wall at 70 cm below ground in B 74, while the apse is at least 1 m below ground. Perhaps the North Alley is an expansion of B 74, and the wall from B 74 was removed or turned out not to be a wall at all. Scott’s plan of the North Alley on p. 57 does not clarify the situation at all, as none of the walls on the plan are 70 cm below ground. ] Tzonou-Herbst=One of the walls in Scott’s plan on p. 57 is ca. 80 cm below ground., and runs along the south side of the trench. Presumambly this is the wall Scott revealed with B74 and then he expanded the trench north and found the apse.
