Interpretation
Function:
Prob a terrace wall but the bottom has not been reached & it is not obvious whether it is the same as Wall 21; whatever its original purpose, it seems to have been later used as a foundation for Wall 5
Stratigraphy remarks:
Earlier than Wall 5; it is unclear whether this wall is Ir1 or earlier
