… elevation wall 489

[(drawing)]

terre à brique compacte = remains of wall 489 crushed ?

wall 489 certainly leaned against the wall 432 . cf. missing bricks

Note : while clearing the face of the wall, at the front of the cut, many konos were found against the brick faces.

does this necessarily mean that the wall was built in a trench ?.

uncertain.

Reminder . the "wall" rests on nothing.
