Stage Description Modification and reuse of architectural features. Carving of postholes (?) and remodeling of some elements of the East Corridor and East Walkway walls.
Stage Stage 1c
Description These post holes are carved into the eighth course of the eastern side of the East Corridor Wall. They are only extant in Loci 25 and 29, as the eighth course is not preserved in northern sections of wall. The average size of these holes is 0.20 m in width-by-0.15 m in length. Although these are carved into the eighth course of the wall, in all probability, they were carved well after the wall was already erected. The east west spacing between them corresponds to the north south and east west placement of the rows of post holes in the East Walkway floor (Locus 57).
Location central/south.
Bottom (m) Closing levels: Approximately 909.014 m.
Top (m) Opening levels: Approximately 909.024 m.
