SU 5093 was filled with pottery, tiles and other materials including special finds. There is rubble especially along the western edge of the SU along wall 5018. Additionally, there was a patch in the southeast of burned material, mostly bone and charcoal, which was also in close proximity to a cluster of glass vessels and special finds (see sketch). This appears to be the result of dumping activity, perhaps of objects from the adjacent structure.
