This wall represents the eastern limit of the series rooms that border the eastern side of the large 'piazza' and the central road intersection of the city. Construction techniques - consistent with the Area F building - would seem to date it roughly to the 3rd c. BCE (mid-Republican phase). The line of the wall seems to be continued - at least in the foundation course - by wall 7073 to the north (eastern limit of Room 1).
