Interpretation
Function:
Seems too small to have ever walled anything in; poss silo, bin or enclosure for grain on N terrace hillside; slight similarity to EB apsidal structure at S balk of 8L73 (U84); bottom of Wall 17 not excavated; if a silo, L 19 may yield some of its contents
Stratigraphy remarks:
Earliest phase of square
