Blocking of two primary openings in wall F 3, between spaces 70 and 71; constructed out of mudbrick and mortar and done in order to remodel the access between the two spaces. Set into an upper course was a horn core projecting into space 71 (1952 XI).
Originally two openings, 0.5 x 0.7 m wide, the larger probably the access and to the north of the smaller; after remodelling, new access was 0.9 m wide and to the south of the original larger one.
Discussion:
Two-"phase" remodelling of access between spaces 70 and 71; primary phase involved some levelling (2152) of the original opening of which there were two (large access, and smaller hatch/window) and then blocking of lower parts of access still standing with 2128/2129; second "phase" involved re-building of wall over larger access. The "phases" are based solely on changes in brick and mortar and in reality the blocking and reconstruction are probably part of the same event. A horn core was set into the south of the wall relief F 48/F 25. This and the surrounding mudbrick and mortar was removed in 1996 due to its fragile/vulnerable state, the rest in 1997. |
