latrine channel and the gutter.

Beside preparing a full architectural record of the monument, our aim was to
specify the required reconstruction work. In the case of House No. 9 we decided to limit
such work as much as possible. The structure we were dealing with here was only partly
uncovered and its plan could not be traced in its entirety. However, some of the
discovered elements need to be protected and enhanced. Thus, we suggested such
conservation work as was necessary to enable a clear and proper exposition of the
structure in the future. Beside reinforcing and building up the walls in several places
and making the openings more visible, we proposed the full reconstruction of a column
of the portico and of the aedicula which could be placed in the wall of room No. 14.
