Discussion: This is a layer that is situated under an infill layer recorded as unit 15200. The northern and yhe southen boundaryof the layer is made of two mud bricks walls (u. 11764 & 13594) respectively, which represent an older phase of human activity at this place. The eastern boundary is appointed arbitrarly (the end of a trench) while the western is made of unit 13598 which are two mud bricks that may have been a part of a partition wall. Additionaly in its NW corner there is a pit (u. 15210) dug into the layer. The layer slopes east and consist of relatively few elements of inclusion like bones, pottery, shells and obsidian and a considerable number of mud bricks fragments (the dimensions of the largest of them are: 0.34 x 0.18 x 0.09).
