Podere Cannicci – Day 9, 2020

The excavation of US 23 and wall 21 continued; a structure containing cocciopesto, mud bricks, roof tile and large scatters of charcoal emerged in the southern side.

Alongside US 23, a new context (25) was revealed that covers a new wall, going NE-SW.

On the northern side of the trench, instead, a drain was discovered going NE-SW, filled with a clay deposit. The drain is flanked by two pillars; close to the southern pillar there are remains of a smashed dolium.

The day ended with mapping and recording all the new contexts.
