Data Category Information: In Situ: in situ; Location: feature; Material: brick&mortar; Deposition: layered (wall plaster)
Description: U23410 is the construction of F7779, which is a square bench built on top of U23209 and the southern part of Bin/Basin F7777. Bench 7779 is constructed against the West-facing side of Wall F7776, within space 576.
Discussion: U23410 consists of: (a) the lime-plastered sides of F7779; the plaster on the top either was previously excavated or has not survived; (b) two yellow brown mudbricks ; (c) the grey mortar in between them. Charcoal came from the grey mortar. This feature, having been built higher, upon Bin/Basin 7777, seems to be more related to a later phase of space 576, probably in association with Oven F2195 and the dirty floor (U31421) of the Southern side of this space.
