Discussion: This unit was recognized as pit infill, because of the difference in consistency of soil and its color. Recognition of this feature was supported by the fact that this unit truncated early construction material on its western side. This pit infill has circular shape in plan. Shape and size of this pit is similar to other pits recognized in this trench. Found a lot of pottery sherds may indicate about the storage function of this feature. Unit was excavated using trowel and brush.
