Description (summary) 2005-08-20 rE A mixture of bakhia and brown soil surrounding the visible stones of wall, k11, in the west side of k12/k101. It could be either a coating to prevent water seepage into the interior of the wall or a mud mortar to support a second layer of stones as we see in the vicinity of the apron, f10, on the east side of these loci.
