Discussion: This is a rubble of orangish and mostly regular in shape brics situated along the northern wall of the Space 326 in Building 74. This
uni t consisted of 2 layers of bricks. The upper layer consisted of eleven bricks which had the following dimensions: 0.36x0.30x 0.05; 0.27x0.30x0.08; 0.36x 0.30x 0.08; 0.10x 0.14x 0.09; 0.26x 0.16x 0.14; 0.27x 0.25x 0.23; 0,35x 0.40x 0.18; 0.13x 0.17x 0.09; 0.35x 0.22x 0.11; 0.18x 0.26x 0.17; 0.18x 0.08x 0.16.
The lower cours composed only 2 bricks. They had the following dimensions: 0.20x 0.40x 0.10 m and 0.28x 0.42x 0.04. The first brick in the upper layer had a nob centrally placed. Bricks were placed at the bottom of the midden layer which may indicate they predate deposition of this midden. Considerably small amount of material was found within the unit.
