Site 33: Gomerino Palace A - Inside Courtyard

Date of Exploration: March 1, 2011

The first site we went to was Gomerino Palace. This is a private noble residence with a large area of land. The main house is used as a vacation home and for large occasions for the family.

The first cistern we explored was in a small courtyard within the housewalls. The orange tree within the courtyard was full of fruit, providing a serene atmosphere. The citern itself was a located in the corner of the courtyard and had a small square entrance.

Shown below is the sonar image illustrating the shape of the cistern.
