Another joint mission of Cannicci and Castellaraccio’s group at the Castle this morning.
Benedetta led her group again to the western edge of the Castle (Area 5000), where the contours of a room were starting to appear under the vegetation and the crumbled stones.
Alessandro and Cleo led the team in Area 1000. We removed most of the remains of the collapse from most of the room, reaching the curtain wall on the northern edge of the space. We exposed most of the new structure we discovered yesterday, which does not seem longer than 2-3 meters. However, its western edge is covered by the tile collapse, so we must wait for a definitive answer. The roof-tile collapse is also starting to appear in the southern part of the room; however, it looks like there might be some difference in high between the south and north part of the room. The roof-tile context seems much more profound, possibly following a slope, moving northwards. We will try to verify this over the following days.
