Start date	1984-07-06
Bottom separation	Clear
Created at [Note]	2022-11-24 20:21:24 +0000
Top separation	Very Clear
Updated at [Note]	2022-11-24 20:21:24 +0000
Stratigraphy remarks	Appears to bond with Wall 7 & thus change an original ext angle turning to the E into an int angle (made with Wall 7) turning to the W or may block door/passage in Wall 4B which may possibly extend into 7K40
Reason	2 rows of stones in a line; lower courses subsequently visible
End date	1984-08-03
Supervisor	J. Fisher
Function	Of sufficient size for defense; may block entry/passageway to S of Phase B wall
Architecture	0
