Interpretazione
-
- This is the destruction of the latest Roman phase of the walls. Plaster fell off the walls, and given the presence of very different types mixed together, and the presence of tiles and tesserae not in situ, and mortar blocks with the mosaic and ceiling plaster indicates that this layer contains material from the excavated level of the walls/rooms; and an upper level, with different plaster and a mosaic floor

- The layer overs a large part of the area south of the walls, and in places is covered by battuta 6093. It contains enormous quantities of fresco, sometimes still in larger panels, fallen directly off the alls, mixed with tiles, mortar blocks and very many white tesserae, some of which still make up small patches of mosaic. Also the cement blocks which held the tesserae were found, as well as ceiling plaster.
- Many different types and colors of wall plaster are mixed in this layer. Only at wall 6068 can the fallen plaster be related to the wall. Other fragments are spatially mixed where they do not match, and frags that belong together are sometimes face down and face up on top of each other.
