Interpretation

Function:

W wall of LB building; rubbly nature of wall on E face may inciate severe earthquake damage; battered into MB rampart near crest

Stratigraphy remarks:

LB layers run up to it on E; MB layers run up to lowest courses on W; poss 2 phases; poss earthquake damage may have disrupted evidence for a FT on W side; if 2 phases: upper, side wall would be LB; narrower sections may be MB
