General description of the space

Almost square space (3,55 - 3,60 x 3,75 - 3.95 m). The walls are preserved up to a height of 0.50 m and coated with a red mortar. The floor is well preserved, also coated in red, apart from the Southern part where a fine layer of blue mortar can be discerned.
On the Southern wall there is a multiple opening which perhaps carried three doors. Traces of the doorframes and thresholds are visible.
On the Western door traces of a niche can be discerned, but is it not possible to define its form and dimensions.
Inside the room, parallel to the North-South axis, lies an adobe rectangular platform (0,58 x 1,26 - 1,27 m), with a height of 0,04 - 0,06 m. It was coated with a whitish coarse mortar, and a fine layer of blue mortar. Its edges are rounded and slightly protruding, apart from the Southern part. On its Northern part there is a round hole, which carries no coating but traces that may well be of ash. Scmid and Treuil think that it may have been an offering table, or a game.
