Description of the window frame

Window on the west, external wall of room I.4b, with the unique feature of painted sill and infills of the jambs. Its main timber elements are reconstructed in concrete following the size of the chases. The lintel was missing when excavated, and is also reconstructed. Probable transveral timber elements at the level of the sill -if existed according to the typology- are not reconstructed and there is only scarce evidence on archival photographs.
