A well-preserved water reservoir, lined with brick and provided with a narrow covered channel, has been found at a depth of about 8 feet. ‘By the side of the tank was standing a large earthen jar with its pointed bottom fixed in the ground. It was filled with earth in which were several smaller jars and terra-cotta figurines. The exact purpose of the reservoir has not yet been ascertained.’⁵
