dy took a series of photographs to illustrate the complete stratigraphy of the AK building occupation which was displayed in the various platforms that had been excavated in previous years and now were exposed in our effort to bring all of what had been A2 and A7 down to the level of the patio courtyard.  Excavated f99 accumulation to the level of a pebble floor, f150, that is similar in appearance to the f80 floor.  Most likely linked.  Pebbles extend less than one meter to the north from major E-W wall, f124, merging with a tamped earth floor, f153, that may have been surfaced in plaster or gypsum.

ds fill between tamped earth floor 132 and layer of sherds/stones, f134.  Alternative interpretation is that this is the mud foundation for a wall.  (The previous excavator of A2 believed there was an E-W retaining wall associated with house wall, f135.)   A course of brick can be seen in section in the north baulk and there is a lense of ashy material just to the west in section that looks like it is piled up against it.

dy still excavating in the southern half of the square.  Found that the tanuur, f151, was placed atop a massive platform, f152, made of large stones. f152 extends north into the partially excavated portion of k9 and west into the west baulk.
