The lack of any rooftiles and similar architectural debris suggests that perhaps it was brought in from an adjacent area and dumped in the room.

Another possible explanation is that the room was quarried for clean bedrock fill (perhaps by the builders of the Late Roman Building to the east), with the resultant filling of the room with destruction debris from Alaric's attack on the city, perhaps taken from the same area where the bedrock fill was to be used (cf. east, in Room 1 and the south half of Room 2. |

B.C.) seems to indicate that the shaft of S 13:2 may not have been filled to the top originally (or the fill settled over centuries), and had been covered in some way, not to be rediscovered until the early Roman period.
The location of the well immediately beside a wall of the library main room, as well as the coincidence of the top edge of the well with the bottom level of the library Main Room wall, would suggest that the shaft was cut into during preparations for the construction of the library, which also removed any structural remains that may have been associated with the use phases of the Classical wells.
