Data Category Information: In Situ: in situ; Location: floor (packing only); Material: pise-like; Deposition: homogeneous

Dimensions: 0.33 E-W; 0.08 N-S 

Discussion: (3915) tiny small narrow unit up to E-W baulk in NW corner of building 2.

Recognised on section of E-W baulk, has darker colour than the rest of the section.

Possibly an infill. To its N and E the texture and composition of the soil is very different to the compact brick like soil around.

(3915). To the W a fine layer of white plaster parallell to the wall bordered the unit. Most probably (3915) is continous to the S.
