East west return. perhaps possibly that of N/S foundation revetting wall 56.
Max brick size: 0.82 x 0.24 x 0.16 m
Min " " : 0.22 x 0.20 x 0.11 m
Composed of brick (2867) and mortar (2868)
Discussion:
Short section of wall running from East to west to the north of space 105.
There is no evidence of the wall continuing to the east, but it could have been partially removed by Mellaart. Only 2 courses of brick remained at the eastern end, where the wall slumped to the south. Elsewhere, a single layer of mortar overlying a single layer of brick (2867) was left. This mortar separated F70 from wall F88 tot he north and bridged walls F56 and F70 suggesting that the final courses of these walls were joined and that F70 was constructed after F56. A one time they may have formed part of the walls of the same space (105). A similar layer of material also lies between F56 and F61 to the west. This could have been added at the same time as (2868) to infill the space between these walls, but alternatively might have been the result of a separate episode top support the construction of wall F61. AS the stratigraphical relationship between these walls is not yet clear this layer was removed as a separate unit (2883) beneath the upper course of brick at the Eastern end of F70, a very mixed ashy layer (2873) lay to the north of the lower course of brick and appears to run underneath F70. IT may be that this was cut into when F70 was built. |
