In the first place, this cutting was pegged out on the W. 

 side of the long axis to correspond with Cutting II. Extension, 

 to the W. end of which it joined, and the excavation was begun 

 for the purpose of tracing the inner trench and examining 

 the border of the arena-floor. (See Plate I.)
