The southwest corner, lying in Section Μ, was excavated in 1934 and the rest of the building, which falls in Sections Ν, Ξ and Ω, in 1935. The building consists of a rectangular auditorium or theater surrounded by a corridor. Excavation revealed a marble orchestra floor, bedrock cuttings for the lower seats of the cavea and the bedrock foundations for a stage. The building was destroyed by fire probably related to the Herulian invasion in 267 A.D. The east side and the north end of the Burned Building were excavated in Sections Ξ and Ν'. A late Roman complex, of which the Giants were the northern limit, was built over the earlier poros building.","The Odeum","Checked","Homer A. Thompson","2 Apr-27 Jun 1935","","1935 ΩΔ"
