Two phases of construction have been noticed while salvaging the evidence from the previous trench. Overlying the natural soil has been observed a consolidated and edged mud surface which had become reddish as a result of some firing operation. Close to it, inside a pit lay a number of terracotta cakes and potsherds. In the second phase a mud wall was laid to cover the earlier edging and the pit, and another portion of the surface was consolidated and edged. To its e. was a single brick course enclosing a small *kankar*-lined pit, which appeared to have served as a furnace. In fact the whole complex looked like the workshop of a potter or craftsman.
