This view, taken by the unit without orientation or distance references and arranged in panorama, shows the overall condition of excavated loci just after excavation had been completed and the area thoroughly cleaned. Along the bottom running E-W is the top exposed portion of the revetment wall, f11. In the middle, just to the N of the unit outlined by plastic sheeting (a backfilled trench dug to explore how the revetment wall was constructed) is the ancient baqaya surface of the temple mound, f50, f109. In the middle right (restrained by ropes) is the apron, f10, placed to the N of the wall in later phases, perhaps to mimic the stairway excavated in unit J2 farther to the east. In the middle left of the photo can be seen the wahal layer placed atop the baqaya as part of a later phase after the lower part of the f11 wall sytem had been covered with aeolean soils. Also on the left, between the wahal and revetment wall can be seen an E-W line of "memory stones",a16, placed in later phases to mimic the now-covered revetment wall. [Input: RX31JW.j] |
