Discussion: This is an infill layer placed directly on the floor of the Eastern part of B. 74 [recorded as Space 326]. It is probably associated with this floor. This unit was recognized arbitrarly as the one directly obove the expected floor. Actually, the floor that was sloping East was discovered and recorded as unit 15807. This infill had also filled in the doorway in Southern wall of Space 326. The infill consisted of many constructional elements including fr. of destroyed bricks. Fr. of a floor was found in the Eastern part of this unit. Three big fr. of cattle bones were also discovered within this infill.
