Context: CH06SR_913
- Large cut in the bedrock with dimensions of approximately 1.9 M (NE-SW) X 2.1 M (NW-SE) and 50-60 cm in depth.
Context: CH06SR_922
- Very tenuous remains of a wall (?) next to the pit next to the cistern; only one course of dry stone with mud and rubble chinking preserved, perhaps at the conrer of the wall (a large block with a slightly more regular corner might have served as a quoin) -- this wall sits on 929 and was covered by 883, was probably cut by 943 (but if corner, outside face is preserved on that side); 60cm long by ca. 45cm wide
Context: CH06SR_931
- Circular/conical cut at E corner of cut 913, partly in bedrock, ca. 90 cm diameter at the top edge, ca. 50 cm deep; at bottom, where cut intersects with square cut, there is a hard, bedrock-live material - although this might be cut by 931, seems more likely that this was packing on which a vessel in the circular cut sat.
Context: CH06SR_934
- Flimsy, irregular wall or screen in the shape of a P with the loop facing NW, occupying the N half of cut 913; the long side bisects the cut at roughly right angles; wall is constructed of small to medium irregular stones that appear to be mortared together, no clear faces; stones and shells found among them show evidence of high-temperature fire
Context: CH06SR_935
- Single (?) "brick" of compact orange-rusty brown clay, only partially preserved, found over bedrock at bottom of at 942, roughly rectangular in shape, ca. 50 cm x 20 cm; small white inclusions.
