Polish Archaeology in the Mediterranean (4.1992(1993))

The cisterns. The eastern fagade of the structure, between
the first and second buttresses, were completed according to the
procedure described in reports for previous seasons/ The
destroyed facing of the eastern fagade between the third and
fourth buttress was cleared down to the foundations. On top of
the wall proper runoffs for rainwater were introduced. The
southern end of the fagade was excavated from the south,
uncovering the comer of this original structure. Archaeological
and architectural investigations will be continued in this sector.
The Theatre. The anastylosis of a deformed part of the
brick arch in segment X of the theatre corridor (a/nMacrM/n) was
completed. The arch had been deformed in 1964 when a concrete
pillar intended for a modem skyscraper had been driven into the
ancient substance even before the theatre was discovered. The
disintegrated part of the arch was removed and reconstructed with
as much of the ancient substance as could be retrieved. The
mortar used was a lime mortar mixed with powdered brick and
about 5 % of white cement.
Thanks to this operation it was possible to complete the
excavations of the and the recording of its walls. In
the future the whole length of the corridor will be accessible to
tourists.
Sector WN. In the test trench WN the wall of Room 3 in
House H was consolidated and protected against collapsing,
creating conditions for further conservation work to be carried out
in this area.
