Graecorum vero tectores non solum his rationibus utendo faciunt opera firma, sed etiam mortario conlocato, calce et harena ibi confusa, decuria hominum inducta ligneis vectibus pisant materiam, et ita ad cisternam subacta tunc utuntur.
The Greek plasterers not only make their work firm by using these methods, but they make a mortar trough with lime and sand mixed, and a gang of men beat the mortar with wooden staves, and they use the mortar thus worked up in the pit.
