This is our first clear collapse of the walls that stood on top of the opus reticulatum (previously assumed to have been pise), and the use of a mixed-material wall construction, which we have found in the walls in Area 20000, is curious and raises questions about phasing. This collapse may support our hypothesis of a second phase of use after the opus reticulatum building was originally constructed when the occupants were restructuring the complex for production purposes.
