Dimensions of the oblong-shaped inner courtyard set with flat stones: N-S = 10,35 m E-W = 500 cm Walls surrounding the court: N = W24/60 cm/Td6 S =W22/60cm/ E = W20/60 cm/ W= W2l/55cm/ POINTS OF REFERENCE: 52 = 188,78 (level of the stone-seeting in the court, findspot of the bronze equestrian statue (Figs. 110a-b). 76 = 188,38 (top of the brick pipe under the stonesetting) 77 = 188,62 (side-edge of the brick pipe under the stone-retting) 78 = 188,69 (SE corner of the court, surface) 79 = 188,87 (top of wall W22) The court set with flat stones could be reached only after the removal of a 60—80 cm thick layer of rubble (stones, burnt roof-bricks, limy brick-bats). — Doorsill Td6 in the N wall W24 gave access to the open courtyard from the corridor surrounding it.

The stone-set courtyard definitely dates back to the first period of the building (mid-2nd century), although its original structure is not cleared up as yet. The brick pipe unearthed in the lower section of the present-day courtyard furnished evidence of a presumed one-time sewer system, but this again requires further substantia-
