Reddish soil 1384 is equivalent to 1199 and fills cut 1229 of tufo floor in courtyard exposing drainage channel; accumulation layer/fill of various debris (pottery, tiles, bone, charcoal, etc). As excavation proceeded a large slab of tufo appeared on the western side of SU (covering drainage channel?) with tufo floor on top of southern side, additionally a bit further another large slab appeared and in line with this the soil changed to a less hard, more clayey soil with few finds and it was designated a separate SU, SU 1388 (which covers the step, threshhold and road).
