Description (summary) 1997-07-21 dns On the E and W face of the wall, f430, is a lot of deposit that is very much like high chaff grey brick. But it is not the brick of the wall, nor plaster, strictly speaking. Most likely it was a mud-chaff mixture that may have been applied to the face of the eroded walls or to prevent erosion and damage of wall face. [Input: H726RK2.J]
1997-07-23 dns Careful excavation of the sides fo the wall revealed the existence of plaster over the brick and stone walls. In some parts, hitting the accumulation adhering to the stone layer with the point of the handpick resulted in the removal of everything, exposing the bare stone, but elsewhere, plaster was unquestionably present. Part of the plaster, especially below, was a thin layer of red, in stark contrast to the grey accumulation. Higher up, a contrast between grey/red accumulation to a lighter grey next to the wall could be seen, the latter being a thin covering of the wall. What seemed to be plaster also covered the brick layer forming a flat smooth surface. This appeared to be mud + straw/stubble. [Input: H726RK2.J]
1997-07-23 dns The wall f430 meeting with f465, the continuation of f78, was explored further on G722. It was clear that although there was a brick at the top level of f430 extending to the E, underneath was all accumulation to a depth ca. 100cm. So the top brick was removed and the wall of accum. cut into from the N and E by pits. [Input: H726RK2.J]
