Heavy dumped filling, including figured, black and plain wares, and also a quantity of animal bones, mostly skulls of oxen. On many of these the horns had been sawn off sharply near the base; the freshness of the sawn surface suggested  that this had been done at the time of slaughtering rather than while the animal was still alive.; This deposit has much in common with the more spectacular Q 12:3; here the black-figure supports the association  with the Persian sack.","","R 12:1","","","","Deposit","Agora","Agora:Deposit:R 12:1","Ca. 520-480 B.C.",""
"","4-10 June 1937","Well","Well at 115/ΣΤ (all the 5th c. fills of 116/ΣΤ). The lower part of the shaft contained a heavy deposit of pottery and other objects of the late archaic period, both coarse and finer wares; probably a post-Persian clean-up. A Roman well at 116/ΣΤ (D 15:2) was subsequently dug beside it, and later the party wall between the two broke at two points, allowing some of the filling from D 15:1 to fall into the deeper shaft of D 15:2; there is thus no stratification.; Top to -6.50m, 4th c. dump, with coins as late as Valens 364-378.

Small amount of supplementary filling was added in the upper part of the well, probably when the cutting was bridged over to allow for the building of the Poros Drain.; ; Fill dated to ca. 520-480 B.C., top fill dated to mid-5th century B.C. in Agora XXX, represented by P 20867.","","D 17:10","","","","Deposit","Agora","Agora:Deposit:D 17:10","Ca. 520-480 B.C.",""

"","17-27 June 1935","Well F","A well (diameter 1.10m) at the east edge of the valley road leading from the SW corner of the Agora, about 90m SW of the Tholos. The mouth of the well was subsequently covered by the east wall of the Great Drain.; ; No difference in date was discerned in the pottery from different depths, although there were several changes in the character of the filling. 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. Dumped filling characterized by ten ostraka of the 480's and two black figured lekythoi assigned to the Haimon Group.; 3. From -6m to -9m : a substantial deposit of potter's clay containing cinders and including a few water pots.; 4. From -9m to the bottom -9.70m : a filling of earth and stones with few pottery fragments.","","E 15:6","","","","Deposit","Agora","Agora:Deposit:E 15:6","Ca. 500-480 B.C.",""
