Description:		Structure materials: tiles, small limeston stones, and two large squared blocks. Material size: stone: L 0.12, W 0.13, H 0.13; Tile: L 0.15, W.
Notes:		7303 is the second known phase of the east wall, running north - south, in Room E. It is constructed of random courses of tiles and small stones. It also includes two large squared blocks, which are unclear as to their relationship here. There seem to be four options: 1. they are simply reused here; 2. they are their own repair phase prior to 7303; 3. They are part of the earlier phase (7304) of this wall; 4. or they are part of an east - west running wall interfacing here. Option 1 seems most likely due to their elevation, aligning well with the bottom of this phase. 7299 would probably provide a good terminus post quem based on its elevation and 7293/7295 a good terminus ante quem. This phase of the east wall underlies 5342.
