Description (summary)	2002-09-27	lR	Tannur like item found on top of a thin gray layer on the stone pavement. This feature has a rounded shape made out of clay with traces of burning on the surface. A series of small holes are found on the inner surface. The tannur suffers from damage on the eastern side and is just a fragment of the complete clay artifact. It was removed by the conservator and is currently being restored. [Input: -MX12-99.j]

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]

4. TYPOLOGY

Morphology

Roster	Date	Author	Record
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. [Input: MX12FAB.j]

Function

Roster	Date	Author	Record
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. [Input: MX12FAB.j]
