Discussion: This is some kind of construction or fire instalation of unspecified character placed in Space 320 underneath a bricky layer recorded as unit 13020. Originally it was interpreted as an oven , nevertheless there was neither clearly distinguishable base nor significant amount of charcoal. Hence, the fragmented mudbricks originally thought to be the remains of oven superstructure, might have been a constructional rubble mixed with brownish soil. This unit was finished arbitrary due to the lack of base.
