Room 6

Context Title: Room 6     
Context Name (Publication): Room 61     
Context Description: Room 6 on the north of the central court had a brick pavement on which was a raised base against the north wall and a very small base in the SE corner; the pavement had been broken by a corbelled grave which lay against the south wall with its top just above the original threshold of a door in the west wall, leading to Room 2, which had been blocked up in the later phase in the history of the building when the floors were raised to correspond to the final raising of the threshold; it definitely proves the fact of a third phase.2
