Thirteen equals one
Our vicar is always raising money for one cause or another.but he has never managed to get enough money to have the church clock repaired. The big clock which used to strike hours day and night was damaged many years ago and has been silent ever since.
One night, however, our vicar woke up with a start : the clock was striking the hours. Looking at his watch, he saw that it was one o`clock, but the bell struck thirteen times
before it stopped. Armed with a torch, the vicar went up into the clock tower to see what was going on. in the torchlight, he caught sight of a figure whom he immediately recognized as bill, out local grocer.
"Whatever are you doing up here ,Bill ?" asked our vicar in surprise
"i am trying to repair the bell. i have been coming up here night after night for weeks, you see , i was hoping to give you a surprise." answered the bill.
" You certainly give me a surprise ", our vicar answered ,"but you have probably woken up everyone in the village as well. Still, i am glad that the bell is working again.
"That was the trouble, " answered the Bill, " yes it can work all right. but i am afraid that at One clock it will strike thirteen times, there is nothing i can do about it.
" We will get used to that, thirteen is not as good as one, but it is better than nothing. let`s go downstairs and have a cup of tea.

Houses - often three storeys high were built of stone. they had large rooms with beautifully decorated walls. The city was even equipped with a drainage system. for a great many clay fragments were found beneath the narrow streets.
The temple which the archneologists explored was used as a place of worship from fifteen century until Roman times.
