Interpretation

Function:

W wall of a domestic compound

Stratigraphy remarks:

The 1.2 m between Walls 3 & 4 (Surf 11) make it a candidate for a street separating buildings; Wall 22 could be much later; belongs to the phase of the storeroom with pottery in 5K77:26; the relation of 4 to Walls 8 & 21 was not clear due to erosion, but it is likely that 4 abutted 21; at its S end, 4 was constructed in contact with the S end of Wall 41 of the earlier phase, though with a slightly different orientation
