The Third Millennium wall running North-South, located East of the staircase. Its southern end is wall f130, which comes out to the west for 30cm and its stones are set in east-west direction, whereas stones of f129 are layed in North-South direction: it has the function of a boundary between the area where is the monumental staircase and the East, were there are other buildings (only hypothetic, not excavated). On the top of the wall there is a layer of earth and probably of ^glacis1 on which rests on top of ^wall5, which is a later building phase of the same wall. [Input: U717PC2.J] |
