THE GALLUS HORIZON: A.D. 612 (- 1.20M)
THE OTMAR HORIZONS: A.D. 719
(± 0.86M TO - 0.75M)

Below the Gallus stratum, identifiable by its post holes, the terrain
lies undisturbed. Above it two levels of Otmar's work could be
identified by fragments of masonry foundation, but not enough
remained to ascertain the shape of his church.
