Corinth Basket: Nezi Field, context 536 Collection: | | Corinth | Type: | | Basket | Name: | | Nezi Field, context 536 | Area: | | Nezi Field | Context Type: | | Wall | Title: | | tile threshold in N-S wall | Category: | | Cut | Notebook: | | 1103 | Context: | | 536 | Page: | | 0 | Date: | | 2009/05/15 | Description: | | Structure materials: rooftile fragments;floor tiles. Material size: .20 L x .17 Wx .04 H - .10 L x .11 W x .04 H. Material bonding: none. | Notes: | | Threshold structure context 536 is two courses of title fragments built into the NS wall 332. As no door jamb cuttings are present, it seems likely that the tile courses are the leveling courses for a threshold block tht has been robbed out. The threshold context points to communication between the room west of wall 332 (between walls 332, 366, 365 and 306) and the room east of wall 332 (between wall 313 and 332). A clay floor associated with walls 332 and 313 runs directly up to and abuts threshold 536, indicating contemporary use. This floor was excavated as deposit context 620. The floor 620 also abuts the EW wall 305 and the NS wall 313 with its threshold 537, and is cut by the robbing trench for wall 366 to the north. | Period: | | Late Byzantine (1059-1210 AD) | Chronology: | | 12th c | Grid: | | 262.76-262.05E, 1002.44-1003.77N | XMin: | | 262.05 | XMax: | | 262.76 | YMin: | | 1002.44 | YMax: | | 1003.77 | Site: | | Corinth | City: | | Ancient Corinth | Country: | | Greece | Masl: | | 87.15m. | References: | | Report: Nezi Field 2009 by Stella Diakou and Jody Cundy (2009-05-19 to 2009-05-20)
