This would allow for a good deal of natural light to circulate the building and give an aesthetically balanced look to the structure.

The ambulatory would then give the illusion of a labyrinth of side chambers running off from the central area.

[7][8] In addition to the foundations of the temple a well (17 metres deep) and several ditches were found which contained small artifacts showing occupation of the site before the Roman period including pottery of Iron Age type,[9] and a coin dating from c. 335–337 CE.

[10] Evidence of continuing use after the Roman period is provided by a bucket and an exotic 7th century glass jar found in the well.

Among the artefacts found in the well approximately 15 meters west of the temple foundations, was an unusual sculpture of a dog with collar.
