Discussion: Removal of wall plaster on W wall face, southern section + northern section (S3). The plaster was attached to the wall in a way that all the irregularities of the wall surface were hidden. It was pretty well preserved on the whole surface and taken out as one sample (S3). The surface of the wall shows regular composition of bricks and mortar. Bricks are sandy ones. Like in the rest of the main house walls.
