Additional Phase Info: The “?” indicates that it is not part of the direct stratigraphic Hodder sequence. As a result its relationship in the Hodder phasing is determined by a series of abuttments and by taking into account its location in the Mellaart levels. Correlated to 1960s E.VII.27.

Description:
Shelter foundation excavations 2002.
C. NW corner.

At the corner of the NW FT a NE sector of E.VII.27 was excavated as B.91 consisting of two spaces Sp.203 to the north and Sp.204 to the south. Wall F.819 formed the north wall of bricks (5737/5755) and mortar (5757). To the east was wall F.817, with bricks (5752) and plaster render on the internal face of both F.819 and F.817, and a party wall F.820 of bricks (5738) with a plaster render (5876). Very little occupation deposits were excavated to reach formation horizon and these were heavily disturbed by erosion since the 1960s when the building was first exposed.

Deposits that survived in Space 203 were a fill/make up (5743) overlain by patchy laminated plaster floors (5873), through which three burials were cut F.1065, F.1064 and F.1063. With little strat the order of these burials was not established. The burials underlay 1960s wall collapse (5871) under erosion and topsoil (5872) followed by (5870).
