This wall was initially noted as a thin stucco line at the base of unit 11016. Upon further excavation, wall was revealed to be a mudbrick alignment, running roughly east/west (approximately 5 degrees clockwise of true E/W). Wall has been bifurcated by later Roman/Byzantine(?) pit feature 1751, and abuts floor/platform feature 1753. This wall divides space 232 ("street") from interior space 240. It connects with construction wall F. 1755 at a 90 degree corner.
Upon excavation of this wall feature, it was determined that wall F. 1755 extends into the corner it shares with F.1752, truncating it. However, F. 1755, at this level, was only one course in depth, whereas F. 1752 extended deeper into the fill underneath, with two courses.
Work in 2008 shows this is an external retaining wall abutting the southern sides of B 52 and running up to the south side of sp 230 |
