This is a layer of poorly preserved floor preparation for a floor surface that was used in phase with walls 7079, 7080, and 7131. This phase postdates the ashlar phase (wall 7078, 7057, 7097, 7098). Its construction was probably related to the partial obliteration of wall 7098 and its transformation into a threshold between this room and the room immediately to the south.
