Unit 20722

Category: Layer    dug in 2016

Area: TPC 

Interpretive Categories: Bricks from wall 

Data Category Information: In Situ: in situ; Location: wall/blocking

Discussion: U.20722 comprises mudbricks from the wall F.8272 of Space 585. It is made of eight courses of orange bricks. Altogether, 16 bricks were found. The largest of them had the following dimensions: 100 x 37 x 9cm. As central part of the wall F.8272 has been badly truncated, the eastern uppermost 5 courses of bricks have been recorded as U. 20727. The lower three courses of bricks were well preserved throughout its length. Bricks from the wall F.8272 were bonded with bricks from the perpendicular eastern wall of Space 585 (F. 3853; U.20725). The wall F. 8372 was built against western wall of B.150. Some of the bricks in eastern part of the wall were placed directly upon plastered platform (F. 8284) of the latest reconstructions of B. 150 (Space 594). The western part of the wall was arguably built onto the foundation cut.
