with earth taken from excavation of trench 2-F, the deepest part of trench 2-2A was filled, to give a depth of 80m* corresponding to the presumed floor level of the building (see p. 19).
*NOte on depth of filling: on actual measurement from the south wall of Trench 2-A, the depth is approximatly .65m. Since the ground rises from the south to the north over the entire complex area, this depth actually does corresspond to thedepth of .80m, measured from the north side of trench 2-B.
