Interpretations

Unknown Date Unknown Author

This floor surface seems to be associated with vestibulum and atrium of the 2nd century BCE house. The truncation in the floor along with that of 2202 seems to be natural erosion rather than a cut. Floor 2253 appears to have been constructed after walls 2245, 2239, 2256, and 2240.
