Discussion: This is an infill layer placed directly underneath a sequence of floor of sapce 326 of b.74. It is placed on the floor of B.81 in its SE part. This stratigraphic position indicates that it was set to level up the surface prior to the floor construction. This interpretation explains considerable differences in heights at this infill layer as it was placed on different older structures such as the floor (U.15881) aou the oven superstructure in B.81 (U.155897) along with adjacent rake out area (U.15897).
The infill layer, due to its function wasn't homogeneous as it was made of different materials as ie. Fragments of broken bricks or plaster.
