Umm al-Jimal, Jordan

Shutter Sockets


 

Three-Story Byzantine Tower 
Barracks ("Later Castellum") 
Umm al-Jimal, Jordan


The circular holes in the lintel are shutter sockets. The thin slots in the window frame are for inserting a metal grid, to help secure the tower while still admitting light and air.
