Discussion: This is a wall separating two eastern kilns in a complex of kilns located in northern part of the excavated area. The wall is considerably destroyed especially in its northern part ad thus exact length cannot be measured. The top part of an observable northern edge of the wall is also not preserved. This wall is in the worst stage of preservation in the discussed complex of kilns (interestingly, in central part of the wall a small oval pit has been discovered (units 7308, 7309). Basal boundary is difficult to discern. The base of the wall is composed of a irregular layer of burnt soil underneath of which is a compact dark brown layer. A number of large animal bones has been found there.
