Entry: Finally we have reached to completely interior building features. After hardworking days, we have started to work tiny layer to layer. So removed to U.22300 and U.22324, we can see to some destroyed platforms, many pits, a nice oven, hearth, some strange niches on walls etc… Neolithic people have heavily destroyed to interior features of central room before abandoned to building. That makes so difficult to understand to relation of layers, phase and function of some strange activity area. Because it is extremely difficult to follow layers for early levels deposit. When i was working at North, it was so easy to realized that differences between layers. Now that experience is not working exactly at South. We were trying to discuss with our colleagues to understanding to well the material of early level. As a result of this discussions, early levels deposits are complicated. Anyway i have been working on somr strange features, pit(U.22389) and disturb platform surface(U. 22380). Platform stand on early oven basement and heavily disturbed during abandoned activity. Also this platform adjacent to North Wall of building. So this story is they built early oven after that they destroyed superstructure of oven and they plastered latest oven surface and used it as a platform and niche on the Wall. These are not giving so interesting story about çatal. There is some similar activity area in Arek’s building at the North. Anyway building 160’s story will be clear with after lots of thin layers.
