145… at a right angle up towards the palace, but after 1,85 m it continues in the same direction as before. This knee on the wall seems unmotivated. It can however be explained by the fact that here a water channel, c 40 cm broad, kind of cut into the rock to c. 30 - 40 cm depth is let through the wall, over which an appropriate construction with a bearing stone slab is found. The wall, which extends c 10 m. to the north, runs parallel to this water-channel until, c 6 m from the knee, it disappears into the rock. Just here a find is made of a small plain bowl (145). After the 10 metres the cobblestone wall now bends roughly in the middle of trial trench 5 at a right angle downwards, thereby forming a line of the following appearance:
