Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report Abstract:	In 2009 a rescue excavation was carried out by the Dienst Stadsarcheologie Gent (City of Ghent archaeology department) ahead of redevelopment at Emile Braun Square, Ghent. A cesspit belonging to a patrician property was discovered, containing four ceramic-bearing layers, dating from the second half of the 14th century to the first half of the 16th century. A discussion of the chronological and taphonomic issues is presented, based on the data from the quantitative and morphological analyses. The context contains some (relatively) rare finds, including a piglet-shaped flute/whistle in local redware, double-handled jars (grapen) in Tournai- type Whiteware and Valencian Lustreware which can provide insights into the socio-economic status of its consumers. Furthermore, as a part of the archaeological side of the overarching KOBRA research project, this paper is a small contribution to the study of urban development in Ghent’s historical centre.
