The pillar was the first feature we came across during the excavation of unit 11109, which was the infill of building 48. It is located in the south portion of space 239; and is abutting the western wall. It has not been and will not be excavated. It is rectangular in shape; its two walls lined with plaster extend from the southern wall and meet at the front (with a 5cm gap between). Its walls are built of light greyish brown clay and is lined by a light colored plaster. Its infill has a slightly different color than its walls--being light brownish grey and having more of a ''dirty'' look to it with charcoal specks, phytolith specs etc. the feature has gone through at least two contruction phases as can be seen, first being built with a reddish brown clay. This same clay was used for the construction of the bench that is bonded to this feature. This feature seems to be a pillar/pedestal; most likely supporting something. |
