Description: foundation below building 98 

 

Discussion: The layers below the building 98 are increasing, so 31214 is one of the lasts. It is a thick layer consisted of loose soil with brownish color and scarcity of inclusions such as bones, pottery, obsidian tools ans small stones. In the northern part of the unit a rectangular consctruction appeared which is numbered as 31217, 31218, 31219 due to the red and white layers within. In north of the construction a black circular area of charcoal and bones are determined. Above the construction large circular area of compact redish soil is detected which might be related whith it as they end at the same western spot.
Finally it was determined that the construction below the reddish dome like soil level (31222) is actually the earliest buttress ut to now
