| Description | This locus, 1.46 m-x-0.76 m, has three sandstone pavers oriented east-west with three stones set vertically against Locus 2 wall. The pavers are set against the north-south orientation of the Locus 16 corridor pavers and may have abutted them in antiquity. The possible evidence of this was the fact that the Locus 18 soil/fill ran under the Locus 16 pavers and the platform and covered the surface of Loci 19, 20 and 21. |
