This unit was discovered during the very first excavations. It covers a surface area of approximately 30 square metres. The edge of the habitation is marked by a circle of stones which weighed down the cover of the tent. Unit W11 is the most recent of the three habitations made with stone which were uncovered during the first years of excavation.
