Unit 3568
Category: layer dug in 1999
Area: North
Interpretive Categories: floor
Data Category Information: none
Dimensions: 1 x 0.8 m
Discussion: This unit is the same as surrounding units. It is part of the grid system (1 x 1m) and it is part of the "dirty" floor of building 3. This unit composes the remains that are siting directly on the latest house floor.
This unit includes the platform (F.167) which has been truncated in prehistory and where the scapularium was on top. This is the area where lader for entering the house most likely was. Roger says that the way the floor has been demaged and thin multiple deposits on it were formed indicate that this could be the area where the lader was.
