Category: Layer    dug in 2005

Area: TP 

Interpretive Categories: wall plaster 

Data Category Information: In Situ: in situ; Location: wall/blocking; Material: plaster; Deposition: homogeneous

Dimensions: 0.06x1.10 

Discussion: This is a plaster on eastern wall of space 248. Itis placed on three courses of mubricks that remained from eastern wall of space 248 - 10982.

It was well preserved on central part of while hardly existed in its southern section.
The wall plaster in central part of the wall was made along with horizontal plasters used to cover human remains in space 248.

It is indicated y horizontal edges of the levels of plaster that stick out of the wall. The plaster is not layered, which is a further proof that it was made at once rather than created as a result of yearly plastering of the wall, as known from earlier phases.

Preserved thickness of the plaster is c. 3-4 cm.
