Tamid2: 4
סִדֵּר הַמַּעֲרָכָה גְדוֹלָה מִזְרָחָה, וְחָזִיתָהּ מִזְרָחָה; וְרָאשֵׁי הַגִּזְרִין הַפְּנִימִים הָיוּ נוֹגְעִים בַּתַּפּוּחַ; וְרֶוַח הָיָה בֵין הַגִּזְרִים, שֶׁהָיוּ מַצִּיתִין אֶת הָאֲלִיתָא מִשָּׁם.
[The Kohen] arranged the large pyre to-ward the east, and [the pyre’s] “face” [was] toward the east; and the heads of the inner logs would touch the mound; and there was space between the logs, for they would kindle the chips from there.
