Data Category Information: Location: building; Description: raised area (platform)

 

Discussion: 1. White plastered floor layers removed together with their makeus from NE platform (3400) abd central east platform (3408).

2. From the NE to the central east platform there is a decreasing thickness in layers which made it more difficult to separate them.

3. The floors on the central east platform seem more heavily burnt than the ones on the NE platform which can be clearly seen through the differences in colours (white-gray-blackish gray)

4. There were also areas that included red paint, partly.
