Unit 8227
Category: layer dug in 2001
Area: North
Interpretive Categories: floor and packing
Data Category Information: none
Discussion: The floor and packing removed from this unit was lying underneath the white plaster floor and packing belonging to the platform F.169 (unit 8182). This part of the whole floor surface in the bath-tub-like cut (F.775) in the platform extension was excavated separately from the other two units of the same deposit (units 8214 and 8223) because of the difference in color and consistency of the soil. This unit consists of yellowish floor plaster and packing with visiable traces of burning and vicinity of high temperatures.
