Description (summary) 1992-07-15 RK ac--ash layer. The levels worked on today are the very top of the layer. This might correspond in stratum to the mid-floor gypsum floors in A1 & A5. The floor as excavated is level at this point (see q147) --both at NE & SW I measured 8434-150. [Input: C7-3.J]
1992-07-16 RK ash layer overlays a gypsum floor that slopes steeply W -> E. Evidence of much ash--no tannur--facing "doorway" to E. gypsum floor stops around the periphery of this. There is a large dressed rock on the floor, E. of this. Bricky material is secondarily present. An ash pit 30 cm in diameter close to NE corner. [Input: C7-3.J]
1992-07-18 RK lots of ash over gypsum floor W of what I previously presumed to the location of a tannur (GB suggested that, in view of the absence of evidence and the location--in front of a doorway, there need not have been a tannur there). [Input: C7-3.J]
