Context Description: Room 10, the guest-chamber (P1. 38 a), was of the usual long and narrow shape; it had a raised threshold 0.25 m. high and a brick pavement (much of which had been destroyed), and from the door there ran along the SW wall a brick bench 0.20 m. high and 0.40 m. wide which broke away after 3.20 m. The walls were very thick, with five courses of burnt brick above floor level and mud brick above giving a maximum height of 3.20 m.; against the NE wall were plentiful remains of reeds and matting from the roof.2
