Argument 2003-08-24 jw jw and gb discussed why there may be the discontinuity in the construction of the west end of this wall. The top stones are jumbled and are laid at odd angles, as compared to the component stones of the wall to the east. jw posited the possibility of an entrance here. gb offered the better view that although the wall may have been damaged here, one would not penetrate a wall that was over 250cm wide with an entrance door. [Input: N824jw.j]
Harmonization 2024-05-06 jW The inital description was done at the time of excavation when the nature and function of wall f550 was being determined. Now that excavation has been completed it is clear that these stones were the foundation for a major interior E to W wall that separated the formal reception area a41 from as yet unexcavated areas north of the palace exterior south wall.
