This feature comprises a large pile of clay fragments that have distinct consistence and colour. They are dark grey and in some instances light grey. The clay is very dense and even size particles. Some fragments resemble the material used for clay balls. The fragments are broken into pieces out of which most have angular - pyramidal shape, similar to how the clay balls fracture. These fragments pop off of the fill around it. At the top level of this feature 2 horn cores in fragile state were associated with the clay fragments. They could represent a sculpture of some sort - a bukranion that collapsed and broke into pieces or was thrown in this room from another house.
All in all, we could not define the feature more precisely. We made a north-south crossection through it and discovered a serious of very large bricks under it and a basin (F. 625).
