Discussion: After reaching the second/third floor of NW corner of space 88 in attempt to define the edge of the wall, it was noticed that in the NW corner along the western wall of space 88 there is a possible niche. This area was heavily damaged by rodent holes. After cleaning it was clear that there is no solid wall on this side. Therefore this xxxx has been excavated all the way to the wall that exists on the northern side and to the boundary of the cut toward space 87 and on the southern side of the cut. It seems that there is some kind of floor that exists around deepest edge of the cut. In the middle appears reddish soil and brisky floor (?). Also nice ceiling of the niche was detected and recorded. It seems that this niche could have been used from this level of floors in space 88
