Day 5 of the 2016 Season

Dr. Mark Schuler July 8, 2016

The Concordia team finished the first week of the 2016 season have made excellent progress in both the eastern and northern zones. In the east, the team almost completed the storage room next to the eastern wall of the House of Tyche. Careful work led to the recovery of two coins (so far) near the floor.

In the northern zone, we can now say that the first floor of the north building had a stone floor. However, we are recovering many mosaic clusters from about thirty cm above the floor, suggesting a collapse of a mosaic from a second floor.

We close this note with a photo of Ben holding the coin he found in the eastern zone.
