Southwestern wall face of ^wall6 in J1. The wall face consists of eleven irregular courses of predominantly medium- and small-sized stones. The masonry is composed of stones ranging from roughly rounded blocks to a few roughly parallelepipedal ones. The joints are generally regular, measuring between 2 and 10 cm in thickness, and are filled with mud mortar. The first course is built of parallelepipedal stones, whose lower faces form a regular line that rises gently towards the west and rests directly on the soil. Throughout the wall face, each stone in an upper course is positioned over the joint between two stones in the course below, producing a characteristic triangular bonding pattern that extends continuously from the first to the uppermost preserved course.
