The assignation of the Space 518 was involved with the stratigraphical as well as recording concern of precisely defining the sequences and deposits uncovered under the sp.488 that were placed between B.77 (to the north) and Sp.511 (to the South). The deposits were restricted by well defined constructions of the walls: to the North by F.7301 (remaining the southern wall of B.77), to the East by F.7149, and to the South by F. 3679 (remaining northern wall of Sp. 511). Two of the above mentioned Features (F.7301 and F.7149) were bonded creating the S-E corner of a bigger structure that might have been probably a “main room” for located southward the side-room assigned as Sp.511.

The eastern wall of the space 518 (F.7149) is made of grey bricks and orange mortar just like its counterparts: F.3679, F.7125, F.7126. Hence there are justified data that they altogether might have restricted a big building structure - the predecessor of B.77. The latter statement is supported by the fact that the Eastern wall of B.77 (F. 3095) was set on the top of the described above F.7149.

Consequently, the mentioned interior of Sp. 518 must be treated as a stratigraphical entity as well as recording/documentation one, located between B.77 and Sp.511 and not considered as an actual inhabited/residential activity space.
