This view, taken soon after excavations began in the lower part of locus k22. We were searching for evidence of the revetment wall, f11. Here we see two large limestone blocks, f124 and f125, imbedded in a very hard layer of packed material, f123. As it turned out, the stones were imbedded in the packing. The stones were elements of a line of stones placed along the line of the revetment wall as it was before it was covered by natural accumulation. The packing was made of mud and formed the surface of the mound that remained until the site was abandoned. [Input: RX31JW.j] |
