Based on the composition of this layer and its position, it is most likely a later of accumulation post-abandonment. However, the interpretation of this layer is complicated by the fact that it was exposed by the backhoe and truncated to the south by the previous Italian excavations. It is possible that it may be an intentional deposition, i.e. part of the filling-dumping activity within the complex immediately to the west
