This context was removed prior to lifting the mosaic in order to use this space for stoney materials. Previously this are was used to store architectural fragments and a reconstruction of the stoas entablature. It is unclear whether there is contamination from years of storing things here, or what condition it was left in after the 1933 excavation of it.
