Discussion: Infill of pit in sp551. The origin of this unit is infill of pit. Possibly it was created after abandoned building. This unit contains typical building dump material with small flecks and also some midden deposit as a dump. These are small fragments of plasters, charcoal and some blocks of mudbricks. They appear to be evenly spread throughtout the deposit. This could be similar deposit with infill of another building which is below of B.160. The deposit was deliberately created in 1 single episode. The orientation of deposit is N-S.

The unit excavated by trowel.
