Discussion: This is a floor fr. In S part of Building 62. It was recorded as a separate unit due to a considerable amount of organic material(charcoal)and hampled surface, resulting in its darker colour in comparision with remaining fragments of floor(13040).
It consisted of two, difficult to separate, strations.
The upper one of dark gray and black silty clay, originated from trampling and ,or existence of some kind of unspecified activity area in this part. The bottom one of greyish sandy silt was considerably cleaner.
From S and E and W the floor was truncated by later pits. The C14 sample was taken from this unit.
