Definition Wall
Description This wall comprises the western half of one section (8.35 m in length) of the East Corridor Wall. The wall is composed of 9-12 courses of roughly hewn limestone blocks. The average height of these stones is approximately 0.20-0.37 m, and the average width is 0.30-0.70 m. The outer, western face of the wall was probably plastered. Both the construction of the Central Doorway (Locus 25) and the South Doorway (Locus 27), as well as the application of layers of mud, adhered this wall to that on the east side of the East Corridor Wall (Locus 25).
