The area seems to have been used for private houses from the end of the 6th c. B.C. Apart from few scattered sherd from the Geometric period, the earliest remains indicating habitation were two graves of the late 6th or early 5th c. B.C. Close by the graves was a garbage pit from about 480 B.C., one well from ca. 420 B.C, and another well from ca. 375 B.C. ; No traces of walls of the Hellenistic period had survived but two wells and four cisterns show the existence of private houses in the area during this period. ; A house of the Roman period was revealed in the central region of the section. A late Roman well was partly excavated.; All traces of post classical habitation had been destroyed by the Turkish and modern houses, except for a Byzantine well.","1937 Χ","Agora:ReportPage:1937-Χ-1::/Agora/Reports/1937 Χ/1937 Χ 001.jpg::1556::2048","","","","25 Jan-18 May 1937","Report" "","Agora","Section X; Miscellaneous Notes Compiled in Summer of 1946","Agora:Report:1946 Χ","Margaret Crosby","Checked","This report is a summary of the excavations taken place in 1937 as well as in 1946.; Some pottery indicate habitation in the area from the Geometric period.
