Room 7

Context Title: Room 7     
Context Name (Publication): Room 71     
Context Description: Room 7 had a clay floor, but 1.35 m. below this was a brick pavement enclosed by the same or similar walls; the east wall went down to this and had thirty courses of burnt brick, the other walls had only a few courses of burnt brick and above them the mud brick which rose to be incorporated in the walls of the existing house; in the early period the room was divided into two by a cross-wall (marked on the plan) which had no counterpart in the late period.2
