Data Category Information: none

Dimensions: ~1m x 1m 

Discussion: Floors and packing removed down to earlier floor surface, moving from E to W, floor surface inturrepted by a cut in the floor, arbitrary layer removed toward W wall(screen) at level floor surface disappears. Edges of a cut in floor ?? appear

2nd floor level MS 

Recognition: upper floors & packing 

Definition: screen wall to W; balk to S; platform edge to N; previously excavated unit to lower floor level 

Execution: trowel 

Condition: dry, cracked, animal holes 

Consistency: loose upper floor, firm packing 

Colour: floor :7.5yr/7/1 packing: 7.5yr/6/6 

Texture: upper: clay/sand 50%-5% lower: clay/sand 80%-20%
