"Modern Context","Agora","""Fauvel Collection""; Collector's dump? Debris in the cellar of a modern house, probably once that of F.S. Fauvel.; The collection included vases of all periods, from Geometric to Turkish; a number of the pieces are non-Attic and many of them apparently derive from graves. The deposit is thus without chronological significance and without any ancient association with the Agora area.; Compare the similar dumps, K 14:1 and O 17:2.","Cellar","","","","Deposit","Agora:Deposit:N 10:1","N 10:1","","March 1935; March-April 1956","",""
"Ca. 500-440 B.C.","Agora","Packing under cobblestones 7 or 8 meters west of the Temple of Hephaistos. A similar filling found in a small hole in bedrock three or four meters north of the Temple. The high quality of the pottery from this deposit and the fact that some of it shows signs of burning has suggested that it might have come from a sanctuary destroyed by the Persians. But the presence in the filling of a number of ostraka from ostrakaphoria of the eighties indicates that some at east of the debris accumulated elsewhere and was brought in in connection with filling or leveling operations undertaken soon after the Persian defeat. ; ; Agora XXX: This deposit will have to be down-dated to 440 B.C. because of 231, which should be dated ca. 440 B.C. For a similar case, see Agora XXIII, p. 336, S 21:2.","Theseion 'Street' Deposit","","","","Deposit","Agora:Deposit:D 7:2","D 7:2","","19-30 March 1936","",""

The mouth of the well was subsequently covered by the east wall of the Great Drain.; ; No difference in date was discerned in the pottery from different depths, although there were several changes in the character of the filling. It was filled at about the time the Great Drain was built.; ; 1. Over the top of the well the filling showed some disturbance of the Hellenistic period when terracotta drains were laid in the area.Presumably the well was open at the time of Persian sack and filled up immediately thereafter.; 2. Dumped filling characterized by ten ostraka of the 480's and two black figured lekythoi assigned to the Haimon Group.; 3. From -6m to -9m : a substantial deposit of potter's clay containing cinders and including a few water pots.; 4.
