The work on the installation was during the whole excavation day. Although small in dimensions it has a lot of elements not well exposed, so a cleaning of the whole rim and interior was necessary. After the removal of the fill on the western wall it was clear that it was built next to the plastered surface of this wall and that the fill was added after the installation was built. The same can be seen on the southern wall where the rim of the installation is constructed by silty white clay and big not worked stone partially covered by the composite fill of the same wall. Besides the rim outlines also the interior area was much clearer after the removal of the walls fills. It had quadrangular shape without any material within. Next to the eastern rim of the installation a platform was built which needs to be cleared after the disposition of the installation itself. In the border area between the rim and interior of the installation a charcoal sample was taken which can be further used for chronological determination of this construction.

Due to Bayram celebration and national holiday in Turkey this was day was with shorter working time, so we had a visiting tour by other archaeologists where each of us presented its work in the buildings.
