This is an oven, circular shaped, but the oven floor is cracked and almost fragile look to it. It slopes towards SW corner very gently. Maximum thickness of the base is about 1.5 - 2 cm. It is built on top of the wall which is aligned N - S direction (F551) This also suggest and another evidence of knowing the existence of the wall below the building 23. It is also situated right next tothe S wall of the building Surrounding walls of the oven is not visible or no suggestion being there That indicates us that after being out of use repair work or placement of the new floors these collapsed material removed from here. This feature contained high amount of clayballs and stone material. These laid under the floor in order to crate a kind heat conductivity. This was also the first oven composition in this way that discovered since the excavations are started on the site. Some of the stones are discovered inside the oven are worked and used as a grinding stone. This is also important in order to find out the context type opf the stones where they discovered. Obviopusly they are accumyulated within the oven bases after they discarded. This discovwery is also answered the one question of the ground stone study. Roughly over 40 x find have cxollected from the oven base. Densiity is on the clayballs which are mainly broken. Most of the broken clayballs are situated in a way the circular side was upwards and in the stones flat side was up. that must be result of in order to create a kind of flat and smooth surface for its base. |
