Discussion: This is a continuation of work in space 88, first time after 2 years. The current unit (8457) is the baulk (in terms of section) of a platform (F. 165) left from the previous excavation section of this unit and is the same as #6250 from 1999. Inclusions of red bits of ochre are present in the packing of the platform as well as bits of shell. There are salts on the block of packing material. Within the bricky packing close to the northern wall red pigment sample was founde (ochre?). There were micromammal bones (a whole skeleton?) within the bricky packing. The platform's foundastion was brought down and several different layers were identified - tehse will be assigned separate unit numbers.
