Area: North |

Dug in Year: 2002 |
Feature Type: bench/wall |
|
Location: alongside eastern edge of the platform F.170 |
|
The feature comprises remains of an early house bench built on the platform F.170. The bench was parallel to the house 3 east wall (F 762). The traces of the bench are evident from the clear scar in the floor #9 of the F.170. The scar had been made as the bench was truncated before the next platform (F.170) floor was built. The scar indicates the exact shape and size of the bench. It shows that the south end of the bench was rounded and that it stopped before the actual edge of the platform. The northern edge of the bench begins at the F.602 postscar. The proximity of F.1009 to the east house wall is interesting since it is very close to it; its distance from the east wall varies from 2-5 cm (at the north end of F.1009 it is about 5 cm away from the east wall, and in the south end it is about 2cm away). The bench might have been a short and narrow wall that for some reason was built in the front of the house wall. The east house wall at some point was painted in the wall area above the platform F.170, which during the earliest phase of the building was blocked off by feature 1009. F.1009 was built between floors 8-9 on the platform F.170. |
