During post-excavation study, this feature was reinterpreted as either an abandonment deposit or leveling deposit sitting between the Phase 1B and 2 buildings. Because of the compressed stratigraphy between the two phases, it is not possible to isolate a single function for this deposit.

The SU is a deposit associated with either the destruction phases of an earlier structure or an early layer of leveling for the later floor preparation.
