Room 9

Context Title: Room 9     
Context Name (Publication): Room 91     
Context Description: Room 9 had no floor left; its walls were a patchwork, the SE wall consisting of two sections belonging to two different houses, not strictly aligned and of different dates, the NE section having its foundations 0.60 m. higher than the SW section. The SE door-jamb was an addition; the NE wall was a mixture of burnt brick at its north end and mud brick at its south end and the NW wall, most of which had been cut away, merely abutted on this, apparently on the blocking of an earlier doorway; of the SW wall nearly all the face had been destroyed.2
