2. IDENTIFICATION

Designation

Roster Date Author Record
Description (summary) 2009-08-19 lC Small band of baqaya found next to the western face of wall f259. This baqaya is really thin and about 15 cms wide. It is abutting the wall and probably it was protecting it from the water coming from West. This could also be part of the more compact baqaya f353 found just a little deeper. [Input: T815LC.j]

Function

Roster Date Author Record
Notes on function 2006-10-04 lC This band of baqaya and the deeper one (f353) show that probably the water flowing was an important problem for the structure a8. They show a later attempt to protect a8 and most of all wall f288, that probably originally didn't have any type of protection from the water, as also shown from its coarse construction.
