This channel runs north with a slight curve to the east and looks as though it was intended to meet a channel which started west from the cistern at 53/ΚΓ. After starting both channels, the builders for some reason gave up the plan, leaving them unconnected. If this be true, the cistern at 53/ΚΓ which was disturbed in late Roman times is contemporary with that at 60/ΙΕ."
