Discussion: It is a construction element of the oven placed in the corner of Building 33. It consists of two parts separated by remains of wall (unit 7442). The unit is a thin layer of burnt clay - grey at the top and black underneath. Its E part was destroyed. The oven was built on top of W and S wall of Building 33 and thus it should be linked to the very last phase of this building occupation or the first phase after the building had been abandoned.
