Has note Contexts excavated in trenches were recorded using the "locus system." A locus is any discrete three-dimensional entity excavated in a trench. The key to the locus system is the recognition that a locus is any one thing. Differences in soil composition or texture are therefore as important as, for example, the difference between a pit and a wall. If two entities were distinct, they were considered separate loci and were therefore assigned separate locus numbers. It should also be noted that every context excavated in a trench was given a locus number and thus the trench itself is made up completely of excavated loci.

Descriptive Attribute Value(s)
Material Mud brick
Stone brick size 36x29 cm - Easternmost course, 27x20 cm - Westernmost course
Associated surfaces L1109 White plastered surface with stones, pottery and other cultural remains.
Associated features L1111 Associated mudbrick wall. Similar construction
