Area: Trench 5

Dug in Year: 2006

Feature Type: wall

Feature Subtype:

Location: West of space 340, South of F.2428

Grid X: 694.23 Grid Y: 977.55

12.8. 2008, JMR: Wall defining the western border of space 340. Continuation of F.5055 (= the same as). Different feature numbers were attributed because the upper part of these walls was truncated by grave F.2416.

The relationship with 2428 is not quite clear, they are either binding into each other or 2413 is abutting 2428. A thin layer of soil (17232) separates 2413 from wall 5050/2425 which is running parallel.

No individual mudbricks could be identified. The face of 2413 that shows towards space 340 is covered by a thin plaster line = 17241.

22.8.2010, JMR: Wall F. 2413/5055 was given this feature number for northern (2415) and southern (5055) part, but probably on continuing wall.
Abutted by buttress F. 5053/5054, running parallel (5 cm gap in between) to 2425/5050. Relationships with other walls unclear, probably abutting and not binding. Corner with 2428 and 5053/5054 plastered over. East face (spaces 340 and 341) plastered. No bricks visible in plan - grey brick.
2413/5055 forms western limit of B.98 and spaces 340 and 341.
