This is the eastern boundary of building 46. It consists of maximum 3 courses of mud brick and mortar (most of it is quite eroded and damaged by animal burrowing). Initially this wall was thought to be the wall associated with a plastered surface that could be seen in space 233. As cleaning progressed it was noticed that this wall was a later event than the plastered surface as it protruded as much as 4cm outward on top of the plastered surface. This wall is bounded to building 46's eastern wall; it is quite apparent that the construction of these walls took place simultaneously. The mortar binding the mud brick is a light grayish brown that has a crumbly structure to it. Its thickness varies from 4 to 5 cms. The bricks themselves are in different sizes; though this may be due to the extensive erosion and burrowing taking place that makes it difficult to distinguish the exact boundaries of the bricks. I am glad we finally solved the problems, and it was a good feeling getting rid of them. |
