Discussion: Surface in central area. On the whole the surface was an orange "dust" - due to burning. Survival was best towards the west and to the east - as it lipped up the platform edge - here, two marlsurfaces were taken off with their interspersed make-up (taken as 18429). The relationship (18429) and the platform surfaces could not be established - due to Melaart truncation/excavation.
