Interpretation

Function:

As only a small remnant of this wall remained, it is difficult to say what it might have been used for

Stratigraphy remarks:

Very close to the surface, so no occupation surfaces were found with it; sits on top of surface 21 so was prob not used with it; Surf 21 may have been used as its founding base
