Description:

Locus 36 is a densely compacted brown clay that slopes downward from N to S. The layer underlies Loci 28, 32, and 35. The brown clay is flecked with inclusions of broken plaster, terracotta, and bone.

Inclusions within the layer were heavily abraded and preserved only in small fragments. A fragment of coil-made pottery with braided decoration was found in the locus (PC20230130). The coil-made fragment likely dates to the early Orientalizing period given its position within the layers under those associated with the construction of the OC2/Orientalizing structure. Further excavation is needed to confirm the dating of the layer.

Due to time constraints in the 2023 season, the excavation of Locus 36 was arbitrarily paused.
