Definition 2001-09-18 okk wall [Input: L918okk.j]
Description (summary) 2001-09-18 okk NW-SE mud brick wall in k12 that forms the western boundary of room a15. The bricks of this wall are not very well preserved, and in fact there was some debate as to whether this was a wall at all. After following the mortar lines these bricks were confirmed as a wall that abuts wall f43 at its northern end and continues into the southern baulk. It appears to continue in k13, but part of it was cut by the gully in that square. This wall has a unique feature in that there is a layer of red packing beneath this wall, f95. This could be for levelling, or it could be the western continuation of levelling for floor f90. [Input: L918okk.j]
2002-10-09 jw N-S pise wall in the SE corner of k12 and k13. On the south, it disapperars into the south baulk, while to the north it abuts E-W pise wall, f43. The extant portion, more than 30 cm high is founded on floor surface, f56. Although the west face has been partially excavated, the extant thickness exceeds 20cm. The interior edge is linear, indicating that the walls enclose the SW corner of a room. [Input: ZH823jW.j]
