Discovered in 1995, these three premises of almost square shape (3.45x3.4m), surrounded by very thick walls, open to the west with a threshold of 1.82m wide where you can still see the furrows left by the closing door which proves the existence of a solid double door. The floor was of pressed dirt. These premises because of the thick walls that could protect them from moisture and maintain a fairly constant temperature were interpreted as premises used for storage of goods. The set is believed that belongs to the second half of II Century A.D.
The construction of these stores has damaged on the northern end a large tank with brick walls out of which exist only two basins communicating through an opening arced wedge. The retaining pillar on the northern wall has cracks caused by seismic shaking. The hydraulic coating sealed the basins is still visible in naked eye. This tank which was supplied from the damaged end was in service in IV-II Centuries B.C.
