Description
Many fragments that make up to a profile of the only excavated column base, not mended. The shape is round with a slightly concave profile. Sandy wackestone, brownish with parts burned gray and red. The upper part of the shaft and an area about 2 cm wide around the circumference of the top are finished with a fine, single-pointed tool, the marks of the shaft being mostly horizontal but also crisscross in patches. The remainder of the top and shaft has coarse toolmarks while the underside of the base is roughly finished with highly prominent marks.
