F99.NContact 2009-8-29cJC f344 is covered by a thin layer in section, it has not been possible to correlate the features seen in the south section of k110 (the locus in which we found f344) with the previous excavations. It is possible that f310 is the feature covering f344 although there is no feature under the brickfall (which was a large feature f286) that matches the description of f344. Therefore, no types of contact have been assigned covering f344.

Other reasons	2011-5-16	cJC	Based on ceramics dated to EDIII
	2011-11-21	cJC	Late EDIII floor in front of the apron. This is the highest preserved floor. It is possible there were more floors above this feature but they were destroyed or removed in antiquity due to erosion. The brickfall falls directly on this feature.
