According to Jashemski, this small garden area had a raised strip of soil at the base of the walls.
In the middle was a pavement, serving as a passageway.
The small garden gave light to the triclinium through the window in the south wall.
It also gave light to a room in a neighbour’s house on the west (VIII.5.2).
