2005: Bench with horns in space 94.
Built with clay and plastered on side and top with multiple layers of plaster. It is highly burnt and it was broke and collapsed towards north (bench collapse 11940) on top of layer 11937.
It has 3 horn cores fixed on the northern side two of them still very well attached to the piece of collapsed bench.
It is uncertain whether there were horns also on the southern side, but it could have not been since the bench is not symmetrical (northern side lower, being right on the edge of platform 2177).
The layers of plaster (high number of them) on wall 2106 follow the edge of bench as well.
2013: The horns were removed by conservation team 2013, and thereafter the whole bench was excavated. Floor U. 10300 south of it was removed, and interpreted as later than the construction of the bench. The bench was constructed on top of floor 20656. |
