At 5.50 a group of fallen wall tiles arched over shaft which was empty to below  8.00 (at water level).; Lower fill 9.10-9.60m, 4th c. (dump?). No coins.; The excavator believed the well had never been tiled and that lower fill was POU. It seems more likely  that tiles were robbed in late 4th c., one 1st c. amphora of packing fell in and then a 4th c. dump was dropped in, capped by tile fragments; later a 5th c. dump on top.; REVISE:; The depths for the first part of the work 22-27/2/1934 are given from ground level (62.5m). Those as from the recommencement  on 2/3 are clearly from the top of the well- ie at 3m below (see p. 58); Remark on p. 460 seems ambiguous.","","Agora:Deposit:E 15:1",""

It was filled at about the time the Great Drain was built.; ; 1. Over the top of the well the filling showed some disturbance of the Hellenistic period when terracotta drains were laid in the area.Presumably the well was open at the time of Persian sack and filled up immediately thereafter.; 2.

As found, it lay beneath the floor of one of the rooms of a Roman Building. It was 1.10m in diameter at top, 3m at bottom. Water was received at the north end of this and entered the cistern through a passage which was apparently dammed at the place it entered  the cistern with a low block to provide for settling of sediment.; ; Eighteen stamped amphora handles.
