Phasing:
Mellaart Level: Unassigned at present
Hodder Level: South.S
Additional Phase Info: Main spine. This space is part of the stratigraphic spine that forms the dating project sequence. The spine has been derived by direct stratigraphic relations as far as possible but does include some abutting relationships.
Space 127 lies to the north of the main room of B.44. Heavily truncated it underlies Sp.119 and overlies B.69.
Prior to the introduction of the Hodder phases B.44 had been allocated to Mellaart Level IV and a review of the phasing (S.Farid Archive Report 2008) had placed the phasing as more akin to Level II.
but
Mellaart levels of buildings/spaces NOT excavated in the 1960s have been removed to allow an independent assessment on phasing.

Description:
Allocated to units north of Space 121 and possibly part of Building 44.
(copied from report 15/03/10) This space delineated the remnants of a north south aligned wall F.2540 and a blocked crawl-hole or niche if a crawl-hole (14068) it would have given access through the northern wall of Building 44 into the rest of the building Space 120. The presence of a truncated plaster floor (14066) indicated that this may have been a room rather than an open area, although later truncation prevented any further clarification as to overall size, shape and function. Because of truncation along the northern wall of Building 44 it was also difficult to assign a secure phase within the overall building sequence to the south, thus this space may lie within any phase later than B44.1 and was thus given its own space phase Sp127.1 (Roddy)
