| Notes: | Dimensions: L 1.30, W 0.70, H 0.40 Size of materials: squarish stones: L 0.45, W 0.40, H 0.30; subangular: L 0.30, W 0.17, H 0.15; rounded: L 0.13 Finish: large stones have dressed face, medium are roughly hewn, rounded are smooth and unworked Oriented E-W The west end of this wall comes to the edge of Room E and forms a line with W5342. Thus it has been referred to by the same designation as W5342, W16, which was applied in the 1960s. It does not join with W5342 and has a different orientation. Only one course high survives. It is founded on a long, thin stone that stretches over a cistern/drain to the SE of Room E. The wall itself has been robbed/destroyed before it reaches the cistern/drain. The concrete is crumbly. Tiles (rare) used for filler as is a large horse or cow humerus. | |
