Additional information from the article text: "The accompanying PLATE V gives the final result of this part of the season's work. Very few walls of any period were found here, those that were unearthed being near the surface. But on getting down about 5 m., pavements of crushed stone began to appear, forming successive strata, which mark the general levels of the Agora at successive Hellenistic and Roman periods. Except for the foot of a colossal figure, probably forming a part of the group published in this Journal (VII, pp. 7-22, and pls. i-iv), there were no single finds here deserving of special mention."
