north wall space 231 and northern boundary space 112 in pre-occupation stage. The wall slopes down considerably towards the west and is built on the equally sloping predecessor wal f.1707 ( see drawing 004/904).
However, the floor that was was associated with this wal was more or less level so that floor 10810 was constructed directly over 1707 in the east, but there about four courses of bricks of f.1707 beneath the floor in the west.
The relation wall f.1700 to the south wall of building VII.20 to the north cannot be established at present. There is no visible plaster between the wall surfaces, but there does seem to be some packing material in places.
The bricks and mortar of the wall are difficult to distinguish, and the following discussion is tentative. The extant wall is about ten courses high in the east and eleven courses in the west. The bricks are a rediish bron compact clay with specks of charcoal and vegetal elements and the mortar in between is slightly greyer. It is hard to outline the individual bricks.
A plastered niche was constructed within the building wall (feature 1708) directly above the floor (u.10810) in the northwest corner of space 231.
Wall 1700 is clearly bonded to wall f.259 in the east and wall f.267 in the west and the plaster on these walls was continuous. |
