| Notes: | B161 lies immediately to the south of the martar of B155 and at the southest end of the excavated area. Because we wanted to remove the martyr of B155 and reveal the destruction level underneath it, we excavated B161. The deposit of B161 consisted of a soft and very dark pinkish black soil. Its soil included many roots, and also pottery sherds, tile fragments, cobbles and pebbles. When the B161 was removed we saw in its bottom center an area of hard soil. Kleomenis suggested that it could be a floor. Also in the eastern end of the bottom of B161 few boulders were revealed that could possibly relate with NS wall at 269 East. | |
