PD 329 for PD 430 for second skeleton, same deposit.; PG grave about 25m. SW of Cistern A at 46/ΜΔ. ; [In some records, erroneously as ΠΘ Grave 5 (an empty pit cleared in 1936), cf. nb. p. 321.] ; JP; ; Rectangular put cut through yellow earth into bedrock to a depth of 0.30m below the level of the uncut surrounding bedrock. Oriented southeast-northwest, the tomb measured 1.40m long and 0.65m wide at the top, narrowing with depth. The bedrock forming the edges of the tomb pit was stepped in to provide an irregular ledge, running round all four sizes. maximum width of the pit  at the bottom was about 0.30m. a partial lining of fieldstones was bedded on the ledges; the uppermost stones were interrupted at the southeast corner by an irregular recessed pocket containing two lekythoi.; Skeletons fully extended, heads to the southeast. Lower skeleton  was described as a ""six-year-old girl"" with arms bent over the body. The upper skeleton with arms extended at the sides was considered as perhaps also a girl, about 7 years old. In the process of restudying the human remains, the lower skeleton could not be located, and it may not have been saved.; All of the grave goods were found either around or above the upper skeleton. A quantity of water-worn pebbles, were also recovered from around the upper skeleton. Also, ""black carbonized matter"" and "" small thin animal bones"" were noted. The latter were thought to be from a sacrificial animal or animals, but the bones were not analyzed,nor were they saved.; The two bodies were probably inhumed at the same time. this is supported by the fact that the skeletons, both well preserved, were neatly laid out on top of each other with no earth separating them.","","Developed Protogeometric","","Deposit","C 11:4","Agora","","James H.

A draw shaft at 95/ΚΘ is set just off the course of the passage to the east and opening into it. ; A revised list of assigned objects prepared by GRE is followed here to sort objects found in the cistern system 88/ΛΔ - 95/ΚΘ - 100/ΚΘ.; Cf. E 14:3 and E 15:3.; Objects either from 95/ΚΘ (middle fill) or 88/ΛΔ (lower Hellenistic fill), but uncertain which (they are in the finds lists of both but not assigned to subdivisions PAF) are the following: P 5655, P 5656, P 5657, P 5659, BI 154, S 574, L 1788, IL 193, SS 4091.; ; T 220 when opened in 1981 found to contain pottery chiefly of the 3rd c. A.D. - discarded.; T 221-225 sorted in 1997, SIR.; ; Twenty stamped amphora handles. Most of pottery dates in second half of 3rd c. but evidence of disturbance includes coins and Knidian handles, early Roman pottery, lamp, and glass, ""Pergamene"" ware and fragments of 18 long-petal bowls. Possibly disturbance comes from lower fill of drawshaft E 14:3, which extended down connecting  towards E 14:1. One stamp for manufacrure of molds.","","Use filling of late 4th-early 3rd c.

"","20 February-8 March 1932","","Cistern at 9/Β (10/Β on plan), at the NW foot of the Areopagus, some 200m to the west of the Coroplast's Dump. It had evidently belonged to one of the small houses in that thickly populated residential area.  That sculptors lived near by is attested by the presence in the filling of two unfinished works roughly blocked out of re-used marble. The chamber , lined with the usual waterproof cement, was roughly rectangular at the bottom, measuring north side 1.25m, east side 1.80m., south side 2.06m., west side 1.70m., and reaching a maximum depth of 3.80m.; Fourth century deposit overlaid by late Roman upper fill (cf.
