In questo settore del palazzo si trovano alcuni degli ambienti che affacciavano sul cortile porticato situato -10 metri più in basso- al piano seminterrato, dove erano appartamenti privati ancora oggi accessibili da una scala antica. Vi sono inoltre i resti di una serie di stanze organizzate in maniera simmetrica e dotate della caratteristica rientranza adatta ad ospitare triclini (divani).
