Wall in the west of space 310 under wall 5058. Mudbricks are red-brown in colour, compact and hard, and contains small patches of yellow and white inclusions. The mortar lines wobble and vary in thickness, are cream/ yellowish-white in colour, and were also compact and hard. At least three rows of mudbrick and two lines of mortar visible as of 25.8.2009. Wall plastered with white plaster.
Post-depositional features include two animal holes.
The wall appears to continue downwards, and is overlain by a presumed fill layer (18354) before a younger wall 5058 was built on top. Along with F.3313 and 3314, the wall delimits space 310 . Leaving just the southern side oped due to the limit of excavation. These latter features (3312, 3313, 3314) thereby appear to constitute an earlier phase of construction around the space than later features 3301/ 3302/ 5058/ 2408/ 2427.
Investigations should be continued next season by extending the trench south - to attempt to follow the wall south - and then removing the more recent construction phase before continuing excavation downwards to identify the base of the wall and therefore identify features/ units contemporary with the walls construction. |
