Stratigraphy remarks | All loci seem to be later than Wall 11; it seems to have been forgotten or ignored after its disuse by destruction; walls & surfaces were built on 11 without taking advantage of it as a foundation or divider; Wall 19 abuts it on E; L 19 is oven- & sun-baked mudbrick destruction; contemporary with Walls 9 & 37, making it related to the rooms to E; contemporory with or later than cobble Surf 36 which it overlays on its E face; the founding level was just below the floor surface for the broadroom & was laid at the same level as Wall 9 at the east end |
Reason | Stones in a line |
End date | 1994-07-21 |
Supervisor | D. Holloway |
Function | E wall of the broadroom of House A, bounded by Walls 9 on N, 11 on E, 22 on W, & 27 on S; W wall of paved room with standing stone, extending into 7K80 |
