Discussion: Mudbrcik in mudbrick wall F.5056, the southern wall of space 341.

***Excavated 08/18/2012

The most western part of the southern wall of b. 98 is represented by unit 16867. It is positioned in the corner of b. 98 and thus consisted of mudbrick and mortar layers that are not yet visible below two apparent layers of black mortar (16866). It was a smaller unit, but after its excavation it was obvious that it continues towards the eastern wall of building 106 (and it is connected with it). In the bottom a plaster layer corner is appearing that is a joint part with the West wall. The color is dark brown and grayish and there are numerous inclusions (pottery, bones, obsidian, and stones).

16867 was used to remove f. 5056 with f. 3370 before the construction phases were clear.
