Discussion: This layer is identical to 16276. Continued excavation of white-grey plaster surface of F.2386. The material was firmer than in 16276 and built up towards the south, possibly to level the downward slope of the floor towards the south. The S edge and SE corner was quite thick. On the west side, the surface contained a concentration of charcoal and a piece of animal bone. The layer had occasional inclusions of animal bone, stones, and charcoal. The layer came down on a orange layer in the SE and grey layer in the rest of the unit.
