2. IDENTIFICATION

Designation

Roster Date Author Record
Description (summary) 2008-09-03 lC Wall running north to south in the western part of k101. It is constructed of gray and red mud bricks (10x35x35 cm). In its eastern face seems to be plastered with a thin layer of gray clay. It is preserved for about 120 cm in height and about 130 cm north to south, but we don't know its original length because probably it has been in part removed during the excavation of A19. Its width is not clear, but probably is around 70 cm, that is the measurement of two bricks side by side. The wall is only in part on top of the stone pavement f108 for which it should have been the western edge. On top of the wall there is a row of medium sized stones, probably pertinent to some other structure. [Input: S903LC.j]

Recovery/Assignment

Roster Date Author Record
Daily notes about recovery of elements 2008-08-18 lR In k101, another 15 cm was removed from the north section, finding a wall f126 running west to east. Wall f125 was further defined, this wall is located in the western edge of k101 running north to south, possibly the cross wall for f126. Wall f127 appears to abut f40 on the southern end; these are a series of horizontal bricks that go down several courses then ends approximately 15 cm then f126 wall emerges underneath. At first we assumed that wall f84 continued to run west, so that f127 and f84 were the same wall. This however is not the case. While removing f120, stones emerged, west of f85 wall. These stones continue to go down; at the moment are 3 stones deep but stop to the west. A thick vertical line is also visible where the stones end which would then make f84 a discrete wall with stone foundations at its western edge and another wall, f127 built in the west that abuts f84. [Input: S818lR.j]
2008-08-19 lR While removing f127 and f40 from the south, more stones surfaces from wall f125. It is unclear if these stones continue north, if so then a2 was built over f125 wall. [Input: S818lR.j]
