Discussion: Plaster floor on platform F.3442. It was easy to define, because of Mellaart's truncation (defined thickness of this layer). Plaster in some parts was very thin (eroded) especially in the central part and southern edge but thicker in the N-W part of the platform. A burial cut (u.20041) was made into this floor.

This plaster was excavated in 2017. the unit is conteporary with the latiest level phase II.
