niche in rear east wall on south side. Photo courtesy of Drew Baker.
According to Boyce,
this broad arched niche in the east wall, originally
had its walls coated with white stucco.
The stucco was painted
with red, blue and green flowers and plants.
Eventually, a layer of
red stucco was spread over the top, and since peeling off, had revealed the
earlier layer underneath.
