The cistern, probably repaired in the Ottoman period, is covered by four adjoining barrel vaults. Considering the masonry workmanship, the cistern is said to date to the Middle Byzantine period. 1 The current condition of the cistern's above-ground remains, which have been damaged by construction, is unknown.
