The Priests' Walkway
The priests' walkway was on the top of the Mizbeach. All the
priests that ascended the mizbeach would do so from the right (east), encircle the
mizbeach and descend from the left. There were three exceptions to this
rule, and in those cases the priests would ascend and immediately turn left:
for the wine libation, for the water libation and for the salting of the fowl offering when there were many such offerings being brought at once.
Under those circumstances, the melika of the fowl was performed on the southwestern horn, and not the southeastern horn).
