Large rectangular feature jutting out from wall 2113 wall 2107, was built around (?) it; abuts on both E and W side.
The front (facing interiors of room) displays modeled plaster relief and a cut with burnt edges.
The top cut by byzantine burial f 2042. I began to take out some of the fill (unit 12134) but had to stop to not endanger its structure.
It seems that this feature may have been a superstructure of a hearth. Much plaster collapse was fond directly in front of it (U 12130).
FS 29/6/09:
Oven, located at the southern end of space 269. The southern portion has been heavily truncated by a late burial. A complete opening was recorded in its north face. This opening is 0.40m wide by 0.36m high. The west face of the opening is burnt.
There is an incised horizontal incised border approximately 0.10m above the opening, on the north face. Above this there are curved incised lines.
The oven seems to be associated with a rectangular hearth, in front of the oven's opening (F.2134), although as of the end of season, the stratigraphic relationship between the two was not established.
An area of 'dirty floor' was recorded to the east of these features - (16330) |
