Description (summary) 2000-07-24 jl plastered floor [Input: K724JL.j]
2000-07-25 jl Originally, this was described as ^fa, since it appeared to be a plastered floor. There were patches of red, orange, and white material, as well as large ashy patches. Also, the dirt above flaked off in a very even layer. However, if it was a plastered floor, then it has decayed considerably. There were no large patches of red or orange material, and in fact it looked as if it had fallen from above, since they were little islands over the even surface. Also, when excagated, the even surface proved to be the first of a few very thin ^aa over the sherd floor, f349. However, it should be noted that in the NW corner of the locus, the orange material seemed to slope up and cover the wall, as if the wall was plastered, and there is a very clear vertical face on the wall in the NW corner. Perhaps there was a layer of plaster, mostly decayed, and in a few places fell from the wall onto the floor. [Input: K725JL.j]
Notes on description 2000-07-31 jl It turns out that our first impression was right all along. f348 was indeed a plaster floor, and was the first floor of the structure. The sherds beneath, f349, were the leveling material beneath the floor. [Input: K731JL.j]
