Discussion: Unit 18991 is a make-up layer beloning to platform f. 3442, is a very compact and is 5 cm thick. This layer was very distinctive but the stratigraphic sequence was interrupted by eroded floor sequences along the norther and eastern edges of the platform. This floor sequence did not survive in the center of the platform, possibly because of the damage from the neolithic fire, as well as the later truncation by Mellaart and the animal burrownig.
