Description
compact floor surface in opus signinum. Highly damaged towards E and center. Edges sloping upward against the lining of the walls.
Interpretations
2018-07-19 - Arianna Zapelloni Pavia: This SU is bound to the opus signinum of the E-W walls 8120 and 8012 and of the southern NS walls 8181, 8177 and 8016 suggesting that these walls were in place before the construction of the floor. in addition, this floor seems to belong to a phase following the construction of walls 8240 8238 and 8345
