2. IDENTIFICATION

Designation

Roster Date Author Record
Description (summary) 2008-08-16 lC Mud brick wall running south to north in the western half of k15. Its length is unknown because the wall goes into the north section of k15 and at the moment measures about 165 cms. The bricks are flat and measure 40 by 40 cms and we can see a nice face of the wall to the east. The wall is built of one brick and an half for a width of about 60 cms. The wall seems to finish towards the south with a big vertical brick, maybe next to a doorway, but we will understand the wall and also its link with the big wall running east to west f63 after the removal of the a2 and the excavation of the layers underneath, going down inside the probable structure.
