2. IDENTIFICATION

Designation

Roster Date Author Record
Description (summary) 2009-08-15 lC Patch of baqaya. It was next to the wall f259 but it wasn't abutting it. Anyway its function could be to protect the wall from the water coming from the west, as the upper layer of baqaya f342. It is quite thick and it seems to fill a shallow hollow. No much pottery has been recovered. [Input: T815LC.j]

Function

Roster Date Author Record
Notes on function 2006-10-04 lC This band of baqaya and the higher one (f342) show that probably the water flowing was an important problem for the structure a8. They rapresent a later attempt to protect a8 and most of all wall f288, that probably originally didn't have any type of protection from the water, as also shown from its coarse construction.
