Description (summary) 2004-07-31 ap Part of the oval wall in k13. It already came to light last year in J1. For the moment we exposed 4/5 rows of stones for an height of about 1,5 m (we presume that the wall is at least 3 m high). The stones are big in size and they are quite irregular. Any kind of mortar seems to be used between the stones. [Input: O808AP4.j]

2011-09-30 cJC The first escarpment of area J1 is dated to the early EDIII period and it is believed to be associated with the construction of this wall. In J2 the first accumulation associated with the base of the wall was not clearly identified, but the layers associated with the lowest levels of the revetment wall are primarily dated to early EDIII or the mid EDIII, which fits with the J1 material.
