| Stratum: | House K, cross trenches | |
| Notes: | In the region west of Meg. House we have moved most of the earth and are running a few cross trenches to test the ground parallel to wall N ((55) – (57) page 25) and ca 5.00 m west we have found another wall. It is in rather poor state of preservation and the south end is indeterminate (marked s on p. 25) All thru this region ca 0.15 below ground we find a floor level. It is generally a stone pavement made of small pebbles but sometimes of yellow or whitish clay. This pavement begins just north of the doorway d. These test-cross-trenches I have labelled w. Grk. letters on p. 25 approx. to scale. In trench [mu] there is a large flat stone which looks worked. It is straight on long sides (0.61 m long x 0.34 m wide) but rounded at ends. A grayish green soft stone. Looks almost like a Baetyl with 2 sides shaved off. The east end of the stone is 0.90 m W. of inner (west) face of wall k-l. About the stone is a pavement of small pebbles and clay. The stone is set 0.05 above the level of the floor. (Tonight I paid Michali Fortis 40.00 [drachmes] for the use of his field to Oct 1/14 @ 10.00 per stremma) [p. 25] Top plan, House K [sketch of cross trenches in area west of Megaron House] The cross trenches indicated are 0.15 to 0.20 m deep.
