Discussion: Unit is an extremely patchy and eroded compound deposit of a plaster floor and its associated make up. It is located across the space that contains the platform F. 7401 and the area underneath the ladder platform F. 3437, just w of wall F. 5014. It appears to be a part of the continuation of the floor sequence from the phase before the construction of the ladder platform. These floors seem to be in phase with floor U. 22405 of the sunken floor area, and on top of a very sandy preparation layer (U. 22420) that extends across the entire dirty area of the hearth and sw platform.
