by Penny Wilson for EES in 2002. A large mound in the lake, of narrow,
rectangular shape. Surface sandy and covered with vegetation in places,
and rises to a series of connected low mounds n the centre. These seem
to contain buildings of sandy mud-bricks. Surface pottery included parts
of amphorae, with some imported orange fabrics with a cream/olive slip
and a few red slipped and polished fine wares. Also glass fragments and
pieces of fired brick. Some illicit digging noted: a circular pottery storage
bin had been cleared and broken up. The site is used for agricultural purposes:
grazing cattle and limited cultivation. |
