Area: South 

Interpretive Categories: platform 

Data Category Information: In Situ: in situ; Location: feature; Description: raised area (platform)

Dimensions: 0.90m(N-S)x1.20m(E-W) 

Discussion: Continue removing platform 120 in its south part. The surface of the earlier platform that comes up(F138) is very damaged. In some parts it completely misses and a great number of gravels(3mm-8mm) appears under it. In other parts patches of red paint and white plaster appear without any identifiable pattern. Small pieces of bone are found in the whole area of the surface of platform 138.The animal barrows and pit 101 have made difficult to follow the complete surface of platform 138 which its south end finishes on the same bench that platform 120 was finishing. On its north end it is attached with platform 133.
