Interpretation
-
- This cut is really rather mysterious - it could any one of the following: an intentional water well, small and intended for domestic use; a drain for an indoor toilet; or, just an inadvertent cut that went too deep for a sunken basement and was systematically filled up while the room was still in use. The first of these options seems most likely, especially if a geological survey of the area proves that the water table has lowered since the Byzantine period.
