Interpretation

Function Plastered pool under N wall of EIR1 House B; plaster on Walls 4,5,21; very well preserved except for a spot in the bottom where it was cracked
Stratigraphy remarks Seems to have gone out of use when L 26 fell into it; some plaster was preserved directly behind Wall 13 where it abuts Wall 4, so must be earlier than Wall 13
