Description:   Structure materials: Limestone, marble, tile. Material size: Avg. 0.22 x 0.21 x 0.29. Material finish: Squared. Material construction: Regular courses. Material bonding: None. Features: none.
Notes:   Structure 6321 is a N-S wall which abuts southern side of wall 5562 and divides room immediately north of courtyard from room immediately to the NW. Was fully revealed by removal of context (xxx). At very northern end it is preserved to a height of 0.17m. It appears partially robbed out for most of its length. Constructed of regular courses of squared stone with several tile leveling courses visible.
At beginning of season, small section of wall labeled 5473 removed, which directly abutted east side of 6321.
Southern end of 6321 abuts a large stone (6373) slightly off orientation, which also abuts western side of wall 5463, again with slightly different orientation. This could suggest that this block could represent an earlier pier against which these two walls were placed. Also suggested by the fact that foundation trench on south side of wall 5463 (6038, cut 6039) stops when it reaches this block and on south of block a foundation trench has been revealed, but not excavated. The pier block now labeled as context 6373.
Appears that it would have been perpendicular on top of robbed-out wall 10111.
