Description

  • CH05SR0660
  • Surface above slabs in room 37
  • Solid yellowish soil (hardened clayish ground) above the slabs and bedrock in room 37. Approx. 5-7 cm in high. This layer runs under the wall between room 37 and the courtyard and under the wall at the NW edge of the trench, and is visible in profile beneath that wall. It covered most of the room, but was not present in the center where pit 430 came down to the slabs and not present along wall 499 (either removed by cuts or never present)
