Discussion: This unit is a plaster floor surface of a dark orange-brown coulor lying directly beneath floor Unit 15371 and most likely representing a previous stage in the replastering process that culminated (in this area) in Unit 15371. Given that it lies at the same level it has similar characteristics (flat surface, dark orange-brown color) it is possible that Unit 15395 and Unit 15398 are differentsurviving sections of the same floor. Its extent towards the north is obscured by the fact that Unit 15371 has not been completely lifted. Towards the West it seems to continue under Feature 3320 and there is no visible connection between one another. Thus, we believe that Feature 3320 was added at a later date than the construction of floor 15395.
