Description:

Jashemski noted that existence of a large cult space in the north west corner of the courtyard It is uncertain what this looked like as there are no photographs and the building was damaged in WWII, however Foss noted the exsistence of a niche in the vicinity which could be closed off by a door. Items such as four terracotta altars, three lamps, four plates, and a head of a figurine where found within the niche.
