Unknown Date Unknown Author

Silty layer, artifically defined. Due to high fragmentation of pottery, could be natural layer formed through process of erosion and accumulation.

Unknown Date Unknown Author

Further study indicated that this layer was one of a series of preparation levels which had the function of leveling the ground to make it suitable for the new building.
