Above earlier wall not numbered.
EA: This feature consists of units 2325 and 2325 of space 109 south wall half side brick line 6-8 cm x 25 cm x at least 90 cm. Between the bricks we can see mortar (unit 2326). The bricks of this wall are stronger than earth wall.
SF: 23.9:
this wall was half sectioned, the east half excavated early on in the season & the west towards the end. The wall construction incorporated a cavity, to house fire installation 82, the cavity was rectangular in shape ca. 1.4 m E-W and the depth of the wall 0.4 m. Bricks were laid with butt ends forming the sides of the cavity & a brick over the top to roof over. This cavity was subsequently moulded to form a curved FI. The brick ends to the east had slumped slightly towards the cavity.
This E-W aligned wall forms the southern wall to space 109, bended with a northward bound wall to the east. It abuts wall 52 to the south & site over on earlier wall not numbered 1997. To the west it continues beyond the limit of excavation area.
The SE corner abutted wall 267 to the east which had a plastered face facing into space 109, it was therefore assumed that walls 94 + 98 were a secondary phase to space 109. However the wall 52 north face was not plastered & there was no evidence of activity associated with the earlier phase. It therefore appears that wall 267 was an early wall for which any association was removed (or has not yet been defined) & was the west wall for space 112, space 109 had its own set of walls represented by 94 and 98 but was later than wall 52, this because walls 52 and 267 are abutted by 94 & 98 or wall 52 forms the southern wall of space 112. Confused? (this sequence may change & should be more clear when wall 52 and 267 are completely excavated this year.)
This wall has been fully excavated 1997. |
