"","","A well on the lower slope of the Hill of the Nymphs, (diam. 1.20m -water level -7m), to 7.90m. The scanty use filling at the bottom contained water jars and pitchers as well as the inventoried objects; above it was about 5.00m. of collapsed bedrock with no pottery whatsoever. The dumped filling, mixed with the broken bedrock above a depth of 2.40m., appears to be of the same date as the use filling, and yielded most of the inventoried objects - black figured and black glazed, as well as coarse ware, lamps, figurines, and loom weights; to be especially noted are a child's commode (P 18010, Hesp. 17 (1948), pp. 154-155), and an inscribed well head (P 18276, Hesp. 18 (1949), p. 125, no. 7).

"","","A well in the industrial area of the Areopagus, about 7.00m. west of the West Bath, to a depth of 14.60m. This well was the direct successor to A 17:1, replacing it when it collapsed. The use filling at the very bottom contained the black figured amphora P 18348 (Hesp. 17 (1948), p. 184, pl. 65, 1) and a well head (P 18853, Hesp. 18 (1949), p. 125, no. 8). Above this the shaft was filled with pure dug bedrock almost to the top. The earth filling of the top 1.90m., where the walls of the well had broken out to form a pit, contained very scanty pottery, of the same date as that of the use filling. Use filling, second quarter of sixth c. B.C., the last half.

"","","Grave. RSY Grave 50. Outside archaic cemetery on the lower slopes of the Hill of the Nymphs, cremation burial. Roughly square pit (0.80x1.00m). This pit contained a heavy deposit of cinders and ash; its walls and floor were reddened and hardened by fire, which must have burned on the spot. Among the ashes and cinders were found a few splinters of calcined bones, evidently human.","Deposit","Cremation in NN","","Rodney Young","Agora:Deposit:A 18:2","Agora","Beginning of the last quarter of the 6th century","","","A 18:2","10 June 1947"

"","","Pyre(?) in House N, S.W. Room. (=House C, Room 10); In room 10. Vessels from an earlier pyre were found dispersed in the makeup of the latest ""floor"" in the room, with tile fragments trodden into its surface. This layer and the one below it run over the wall between rooms 9 and 10,so either they postdate the destruction of the house or indicate yet another change in its plan. In either case, the trodden surface suggests that the area continued to be used.; The pyre, however, is contemporary with the second phase of the house, and, if the beginning of the phase could be downdated a bit, could be connected with this reconstruction. However that may be, it was subsequently disturbed and some of the objects tossed into later floor makeup/debris. Some of the pottery shows signs of burning. No bone was recorded","Deposit","Sacrificial Pyre in House N","Agora:Image:2007.04.0008::/Agora/2007/2007.04/2007.04.0008.tif::3040::2008","","Agora:Deposit:A 19:1","Agora","First quarter of the 4th c.

The ceiling of the chamber had collapsed at least as early as the 6th c. B.C. Two skeletons were found lying in order, their heads toward the east and their legs doubled up.
