Description This locus meets Locus 1 at some point over Locus 3. This locus marks the easternmost edge of the agricultural field in the Lower Temenos. The concentration of rubble in this locus is a result of plows pulling the rocks and dumping them at the edge of the field. The top of Locus 3 was exposed by earlier test excavations, and, thus, the edge between Loci 1 and 4 was not recorded.
