General description of the structural unit

Two thresholds formed by pairs of rectangular slabs juxtaposed on one of the long sides are preserved; the two side jamb bases are in the shape of a double L and the central one in the shape of a double T. On the west side of the jamb bases are four pivots. The two doors had to be double-leaf and open inwards, based on the length between the two teeth of the jambs we can assume two leaves of 0.71 m for each door. The two thresholds have on their western edge a door leaf obtained by cutting the same slabs in order to block the doors.
