| Description |
SU 7033 contains architectural fall/fill from between the west side of the doorjamb 7026_f1 and the east face of wall 7011_f1. This SU is arbitrarily defined by the architectural features. In terms of material it seems to be similar to that excavated within 7031 to the south but with a more granular texture and slightly darker brown and more compacted. It also seems to be very similar to fill 7030 to the north of the doorjamb and above the floor area level left by DOA excavations in northern section of the corridor. SU 7032 contains the same material but from 5cm above surface. We separated the SUs (7033 and 7032) because they are partially separated partially by the doorjamb 7026_f1 and because we do not know whether the floor will continue to the south of this feature, from the apparent depth of the fill (and the tile and gypsum fragments sticking vertically out of it) within SU 7031 that there is likely a much lower surface in this corridor/room of annex building, perhaps at the level of that in EU 13 (7114_f1). As we continued excavating the material within this SU appeared to be the same as that approx. 25 cm. North of 7026_f1, so we included this 25x40 cm area within SU 7033. We came down on an area of very compacted lighter brown sticky material with flat-lying tiles and some gypsum(?). [See 7032/7033_d1] These appear to be partially destroyed/damaged but they appear to extend from wall 7011_f1 to face of 7026_f1. Perhaps these elements were laid/fixed between western face of wall jamb 7026_f1 and wall 7011_f1 in the repair phase, during which the stones to the north of 7026_f1 may also have been laid (SU 7028).
