| Description: | The context shape in plan is linear. The top break of the cut is sharp. The sides of the cut are vertical. The break at the base of the cut is sharp. The base of the cut is uneven. Truncation: Truncated by 5329 and 5449. | |
| Notes: | Once the fill of this robbing trench was removed an uneven base was uncovered which is higher along the west side of wall 5446 and lower where 5446 has been robbed out. The difference is stepped. Where wall 5446 should be is a dark brown area of soft soil which continues the line of wall 5446 to the block jutting out of wall 5434. Notes added later: (14/5/08 CWP) With regards to the sequence of the walls and trenches of Room north of the east half of Room F, the first wall constructed was 5446, then foundation trench 5436 was cut into the north end of 5446 and wall 5403 was built in trench 5436 and incorporated stones from 5446. Next, trench 5106 cut into the fill of trench 5436 and wall 5435 was constructed in it. At some point robbing trench 5445 was cut into wall 5446 on the south end followed by trench 5329/5451 into which was placed wall 5434. Wall 5434 was constructed after wall 5435 but when the robbing trench occurred in the overall relative chronology is uncertain other than before trench 5329/5451. Later wall 5346 was built over 5434, crossing it N-S. Finally 5450 was placed on top of 5434, following its line. | |
