Context Description: Room 3 (PI. 34a) had a pavement flush with that of the court off which it opened. It had a door to the street the threshold of which had been raised (twice) to 1.30 m. above floor level and had six steps leading down to it. The walls had five courses of burnt brick with mud brick above rising to 2.90 m. covered with a thick mud plaster; in the plaster of the SE wall, facing the street door, was the imprint of two poles or round-edged planks set together :gable-fashion, the apex 0.90 m. and the ends 0.55 m. above the pavement; it looks like a kennel roof. Near the south comer was a doorway with a low threshold leading to Room 6.2
