Discussion: This layer was very soft/ loose, on top of an infill layer (20129). Its colour was a light gray and it had a mixture of stones (from small to big) with the silty clay soil. The layer beneath was brown and more firm. This layer is thought to be Neolithic. Only small bone, ceramic and obsidian artifacts were found in this deposit. The infill occupies a very sloping cut that reaches a low point in the middle.
