Notes on time sequencing | 2002-09-26 | fAB | Shows clearly that the end of phase 3 is marked by a change in use or perception of the stone pavement in that a small grill is allowed on such a costly architectural element. [Input: MX12FAB.j] |

Preservation | 2002-09-26 | fAB | damaged by a pit. SB and BA attempted to remove it whole by first consolidating the surface, covering it in tinfoil, then cloth strips soaked in plaster in order to create a hard shell with which to remove it: unfortunately it was so thin and so close to the stones that is broke into several pieces when removed, but was then put back together.

Function

Generic function (1st degree of specificity) | 2002-09-26 | fAB | Probably a cooking installation which sat on the stone pavement directly. Damaged by a pit cut, it was probably rectangular and about 15cm high. It had a fire or coals laying in it and skewers with food sticking vertically in the holes. There was no ash around, but the material is similar to a tannur. It is not a tannur in the sense of a cylinder for breadmaking, rather it is like a grill but with the skewers vertical.
