this fire installation is close to the space 253's walls (F. 1959, 1960). For the time being we cant say it belongs to the space or not.
Half of the fire installation is out of the border of the site., under the road (see sketch).
It had at least 5 renewed floors. Maybe there will be another.
From upper level to lower:
1. This floor's material was silt clay. It was approximately 2-3 cm thick.
2-3. These were same as 1st Floor. Both were 2-3 cm thick.
4. This floor was different. Made by silt clay and mud pieces. It was also 2-3 cm.
5. This is made by silt clay, but there are small charcoal pieces in it.
There was very little material (bone, obsidian, etc.) between the floors.
Close to the fence, we found a bone density in the upper levels. Human bones specialist basak boz said that "they were human bones". We found them just on the border of the road. So, if there were a burial it might be destroyed by road.
On the N side of the installation a mudbricky line appeared. It can be wall of the installation.
