Content: In the document, the Commission of Antiquities and Fine Arts of Palermo asks if the clearing of the area between San Nicola and Porta Aurea has been carried out and if any objects have been found. The correspondent Giuseppe Lo Presti is asked to find a replacement and it is confirmed that he has received the drawings of the houses and the cost reports for their construction. The provincial architect communicates that the rails in the ancient road indicate that in the past, carts carrying materials to Olympus used to pass under the Porta Aurea.
