Description:

On the west wall of a small room off the north side of the atrium was an arched niche that sat 1.60m above the floor. The niche was cut into a rubble masonry wall with its interior coated in stucco. It once possessed a tile base. A white panel around the niche appeared to separate it from the rest of the room's decoration. Traces of red paint were present on the interior of the niche.
