Numerous sherds and bones were recovered in this accumulation. f108 is abutting the walls f125 and f126 and can be interpreted like the abandonment after the use of the floor f144, or like the collapse of the two walls above.

Recovery/Assignment

Roster Date Author Record
Daily notes about recovery of elements 2008-08-18 lR 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]
2008-08-25 lC today we removed the accumulation f120, south of the mud brick wall f126, uncovering the floor f144. Tomorrow we will take photos of f144 and then we will excavate the floor trying to go down to the level of the stone pavement f108, to understand the link between it and the pavement f132. In the south of the locus we removed the vertical bricks f137 uncovering more oblique bricks belonging to the f138. We also continued to remove f119 in the southern part of k101 between f115 and f138. [Input: S825LC.j]
2008-08-25 lC we uncovered the floor f144 below f120 and tomorrow we will take photos. [Input: S825LC.j]
