Unit 8288

Category: layer    dug in 2001

Area: North 

Interpretive Categories: floor and packing of NW corner 

Data Category Information: none

Dimensions: 78cm X 93 cm 

Discussion: This unit removed the white floor and the packing immediately under it. There are still packing layeres on top of the floor which is our goal. This unit had to wait for the completion of unit 8254 and unit 8262 as they were both on top of this unit. It is now clear that the floor layer from F. 169 continued onto the west platform area (former sp. 158) and it is contemporary if not the same floor unit 8218.
