Remarks

Remarks:

This wall was founded on earth with a mix of stones and areas of earth instead of an even course of stones. From the N balk it appears that there was mudbrick on top of the stone foundation. Four courses of mudbrick are visible on the balk. Last rock in lowest course at S side is also part of the highest course in Wall 55.
