![]() | Room 6 | Chapel, Behind the guest-chamber (5) lay the chapel (6); the wall dividing them had been so knocked about that its character was doubtful; there seems always to have been a door at its south end, for the south jamb was bonded into the south wall, but the main section of the wall had been destroyed and rebuilt and the pillar between the two doors was the latest part of all; but the existence of the second door is uncertain.The chapel (Room 6) was originally paved but most of its pavement had been pulled up; of the altar and "table" there was nothing left. Under the pavement at the south end was a large corbel-vaulted brick tomb LG/66; there was a second corbel-vaulted brick tomb at the north end which however lay so high that it must be assigned to a late phase in the history of the house when the floor had been raised (as is shown to have been the case by the threshold of the front door); below it was a larnax burial LG/67 which should belong to the early phase, while a larnax burial LG/69 underlying the foundations of the west wall must antedate the house in its present form; it contained the body of a child; traces of black hair remained on the forehead and with them fragments of a silver diadem | (none) |
