Imprints of ashlars on the central gate pillar, viewed from the north, detail. sebb kváderkő (80x60 centiméter, 60x50 centiméter) lenyomatát sike­rült azonosítanunk a megmaradt vakolatban. A középpillér-pár helyett, a ko­rábbi elképzelésekkel és rekonst­rukciókkal szemben, csak a kapuzat hátsó falsíkjában tártunk fel egyet. A kapuzat kereszttenge­lyében nem került elő párja. Ezzel a ténnyel módosul a kapurekonst­rukciós elképzelésünk is. A kapu­szárny ezek szerint a kapuzat hát­excavation of the surface left on the southern side of the modern cellar, which was dug into the northern gateway of the eastern gate (Fig. 3.) in trenches III and IV in square V­14. (KOCSIS 1998, 84-85.; KOCSIS 2000, 94.) On the strip of land left free par­allel to the southern wall of the modern cellar, a relatively intact stratigraphie sequence seems to have been preserved along with the stratigraphy of the northern gateway of the gate. In this section, the central pillar of the double gate, carved from a single piece, was found on the longitudinal axis of the gate. It measured 130 x 108 cm. (Fig. 4.) Its surface preserved the imprints of small ashlars (80 x 60 cm and 60 x 50 cm) in the mor­tar. Instead of the pair of central pil­lars suggested in earlier hypothe­ses and reconstructions, only one was unearthed in the back wall face of the gate. We could not find its pair in the cross axis of the gate. This has modified the reconstruc­tion theory of the gate. Accordingly, the wing of the gate was placed close to the back wall of the gate. During the excavations we reached the stone slab pave­ment of the via principalis, which ended at the cross-axis of the gate.
