Discussion: 13919 is first recognised as an area with a concentration of burnt kerpic pieces and charcoal. When it is cleaned, we have seen that the area was limited on west and south by a thick layer of charcoal. This made us think that the concentration in burnt area might indicate a wooden container. Diigging deeper and cleaning more, showed that the charcoal limitation is only an W&S and does not continue an N and / or E. Contrary to the charcoal, on N and E there were kerpic kerbs- all in fragments (not showing a complete plan). So it is probable that the area is the rest of another bin in space 283. Interesting is a few burnt stones close to the floor level of the bin (?)
