General description of the door frame

Interior doorframe as part of a timber frame wall with cup-board (Str1084), and part of Str1111. The doors of this wall had a horizontal beam embedded in the floor in order to stabilize the structure and most probably had pivots for the door leafs. In the excavation diaries one can find a description of the imprints of the door leaf in the ash, a gap of 3cm. (Palyvou 2005, Palyvou 1999, Palyvou 2019, p 146, f.129)
