Description The middle stylobate wall of the East Colonnade, overlying the middle cryptoporticus wall features. Some parts of the top of this wall have been exposed for some time—both subdatum points C and D are set on it. Its underlying relationship (or really, the underlying relationship of the whole wall complex of Loci 6, 9, and 11) is unknown since the bottom of the complex was not reached this season. It is constructed of large, roughly cut sandstone blocks leveled with chinking.
