Description:
this space was defined last year (2005). It is too close to the fence and slope is very sharp in this part of the trench. Last year we documented two features for here: F. 1972 was leaning against the north wall (F. 1959). F. 1973 was on the corner of the two walls. Both of them were covered with lime. But in 2006 F. 1972 and 1973 were removed.
In the middle of space 253, the floor of a hearth/fire installation was exposed. It has five succeeding floors. Where the latest 3 differ from the 4th and 5th floor.
The first three have silty soil.
The fourth silty and kerpiç the fifth floor has very small charcoal pieces that stuck on the floor.
