General description of the space

Room I.7 has access from room I.5, and to room I.6. and an auxilliary staircase to room 0.7. It is lit by a window on the north wall, and is bounded by mudbrick walls forming an L. "Next to the staircase was a cupboard found filled with vessels, between which were the imprints of two shelves that had fallen from position. The area is well-lit by a window on the north exterior wall of the building." Palyvou 2019, p.238.
