I have seen these on grassland tiles. They are not colonies because they are within the city radius, and don't look like them. They are not mines because I have seen these on mountains and they look different and they are not irrigated either. So what are they? The attachments show a load of these buildings around the city of Samarra, and I have highlighted one by circling it in red. It would seem strange if they are fortresses, especially so many of them around the city...

It's from the www.civ3.com gallery. Look at any of the screenshots of the empire and you will notice these things are quite prominent around some of the cities.
Now what I reckoned it could possibly be is where there is construction work queued for a worker, which will eventually come along and complete the work.Speaking of Erith:

Okay. I don't have much time to look right now, but I'll get to it later today so you can have my expert opinion
EDIT: I made a couple seconds of free time.... They might be some sort of trading post ala CtP (increases trade like irrigation increases food)

you honestly couldnt tell those were mines?
would you prefer the civ2 "hut" mines?
next question: how come you can mine grasslands? (it used to be a "forest" command."I've lived too long with pain. I won't know who I am without it. We have to leave this place, I am almost happy here."
