52.70544, 5.29145
Notes: In 2014, archaeological research was conducted by Archeologie West-Friesland. In 1590, the major urban expansion of Enkhuizen began, and the investigated area became part of the city. In that year, old ditches were filled in, and the ground level was raised. Subsequently, several new ditches were dug, two of which were found during the excavation. These new ditches did not exist for long, as they were filled in again around 1615. During the filling process, a lot of waste was thrown into the ditches. Some notable finds from this waste include early Chinese porcelain, Italian and Portuguese faience, a coconut and a miniature mortar made of lead and tin. A large pit yielded a remarkable olive oil jug from Portugal. Houses were built in this part of the city in the first half of the 17th century.
