Unit 23966

Category: Layer    dug in 2017

Area: TPC 

Interpretive Categories: platform surface 

Data Category Information: none

Discussion: It was a fairly thin surface of the platform (F. 8661), adjacent to platform F. 8660 in its N part. There were remains of a plaster on the edge abutting platform F. 8660.

The platform was severly truncated by a later pit and only its northernmost part survived. This platform was also truncated by an infant burial (f.8662) located in its NE corner.

Layer 23966 was placed on a constructional layer u. 23967 and seems to have been constructed simultaneously with a surface of platform F.8660 (u. 23968).
