F.3338 is the eastern buttress in Soace 343. During excavation in Sp.343 in 2009 it was noticed that the walls F.2426, F.2425/5050 and F.5074 surrounding Sp.343 were built on top of older walls (F.3304, 3305, 3306) which surrounded an older space with roughly same outlines as Sp.343. The older space has no number yet. Three buttresses (F.3307, 3308, 3309) were found abutting F.3304, 3305 and 3306. Only then remains of younger buttresses belonging to Sp.343 were recognised op top of F.3308 (F.3338) and F.3309 (F.3339).
(JMR - 21/8/2012) Buttress F.3338 was never actually observed in B.107. Its existence was inferred from the existence of buttresses F.3339 in the North and F.3356 in the West, belonging to one construction phase with walls F.2426, F.2425/5050 and F.5074. F.3338 probably was so fragmented that it was not recognized during excavation. After the buttress F.3339 was found in the North, the excavators remembered removing what what might have been the buttress. Also, wall F.2425/5050 is slightly protruding in this part - this might be the remains of the buttress. |
