Unit 6174
Category: layer dug in 1999
Area: North
Interpretive Categories: floor and packing layer
Data Category Information: none
Discussion: Began removing floor and then packing below in S-central area of unit. As I moved N the surface became more difficult to follow and there were higher up discontinous plaster floor layers. These were also taken out and the whole unit taken down to the even, white plaster surface first encountered in the S of the unit. There is and interesting "feature" in the E area of the unit - darker area of a possible cut (burial cut?).
