New Units: 2250- A new unit number was assigned to a first internal separated space in the room/space 86. This unit is located in the SW corner of space 86 and is defied by an internal wall that runs N-S, which was observed already in the scraping of the area.

Old Units:
The work has been continued in the burials. Unit 2236/2237/2244 was recorded, drawn and photographed today and the bones were removed. The removal of the tibias was at first left for the later date since these bones run under the N-S control balk. However, a ceramic vessel - a grave good was spotted under the persons toes. Because of this and because of the long bones we decided to remove this portion of the balk.
Unit 2234/2235/2246, another burial that had no burial goods. This burial was deepest and has been completely removed.
Unit 2233, a collapsed feature of white plaster and white mud-brick was further cleaned but has not been yet completely defined and its cross-sectioning has not been yet continued.
Unit 2250 was further cleaned and especially in the area where the little pit goes under the west wall of space 86. The situation with the main W-wall in the SW corner of space 86 is not completely clear yet. It seems that a portion of this wall collapsed inside the room. Work will continue.
Unit 2239 next to 2250 and E from it contain the deposits which are under and are different from the layer of collapsed hardened deposits that were removed in the previous horizon.
In Unit 2218 was finished cleaning of the area next to the N wall.
New Units:
2251- A skull that was found during the cleaning of the burial cut 2212 and after removing the skeleton. This skull seems to be in the secondary position, most likely brought in by the animal activity, which can be observed in a large animal pit. The skull is only partially preserved, without the face bones. It has been recorded on the unit sheet and removed from the ground.
2247 - Removed a next layer of hardened room fill. The deposits under it are similar to the miden material. It seems that in all the areas of space 86 where we get under the hardened top deposits of the building miden material occurs under it.
