Summary/Abstract: Pottery from the eastern part of the Hellenistic House, discovered in the 2006 campaign, is for the most part Early Roman in date. Hellenistic ceramics, including fairly numerous stamped Rhodian amphora handles, and a few Late Classical pieces, which are obviously residual in the mixed Hellenistic-Roman layers, constitute a mere few percent of the material. Late Roman vessels are also rare, while pottery from the 3rd century AD was totally absent. The Early Roman ceramics are dated en masse to the first half of the 2nd century AD.
