the SW corner of DR◊(4) led to a small open court (6) and the adjacent DR/KI (7) (Figs. 5.85-5.86).
This house nucleus was found shut off from atrium (A") by a door.
N of entrance #11 was KI (8), once open to the street as a stairwell to upper floor rooms. To the S
was bedroom (9), the storage/work area (11) containing toilet and weaving items, and DR (10).
On the W of atrium (A") was another bedroom (12), tablinum (13), converted into a storage area,
and another storage room (14). Room (15) was a transitional space to the portico and reception
rooms off the large garden (23) to the S. Passage (15) led past and accessed two dining areas,
DI•(16) and DH (17) and the portico/corridor (19) at #12 (Figs. 5.87-5.88). Stairs to upper floor
rooms overlooking the garden were built along the E side of room (20), across from KI (21).
Finally, bedroom (22) backed onto garden (23) , which had a masonry DO on the W, and
plantings on the E (Fig. 5.89). A door and stairs at the S end of the garden led to the other house
joined to this property at (I.7.19).
