| Stratigraphy remarks | Difficult to trace this surface to Wall 6; poss used in connection with & contemperaneously with Walls 4 and 7 |
| Reason | Compacted beaten earth at aprrox level of flat stones of Wall 7 |
| End date | 1984-07-20 |
| Supervisor | J. Fisher |
| Function | Beaten earth surface; its number of inclusions and variation in compactness particularly near Walls may indicate it was not a well worn surface and may have been made to fill |

| Earth Remarks | Extent not clearly traceable; soil between 3 walls & N balk taken up with Surf 9; appears to seal against Wall 7 and possibly against Wall 4; surface noticed after L 5 was excavated to a somewhat lower depth adjacent to Walls 4 & 6, which may thus indicate surface was taken up with L 5 in those areas; surface clearly evident in Loca 14 & 20; small portions of mud brick in Loca 28; gravelly area concentrated in Loca 22 & 16 |
