description

Very small cistern with only four columns. There is one plain Ionic impost block; two Ionic impost capitals with identical decoration, deeply undercut, and datable to the Justinianic period. Third Ionic impost capital has decorations which appear to be an imitation of the Justinianic capitals. This imitation is perhaps datable to the second half of the 6th century (building date: 550-600?) (Crow et al., 2008, p. 139).

comments

Bible House cistern? See Crow et al., 2008, p. 139. Water entered this small cistern through a single small terracotta inflow pipe.
