General description of the chase / cuvity

Vertical timber element at the western corner of the mud-brick pier-like structural element at the SW end of the SE wall of Room XIV. No stone slab that would serve as a base of the timber is preserved. Possibly it was probably connected with the door-frame (NW jamb) of the NE entrance of Room XXIII. Its current appearance is the result of restoration.
