This heavily disturbed concrete floor was added to the room after its original construction, based on plaster found on the walls beneath the level of the floor. It is divided into two sections by plow marks. This floor appears to have originally been divided from the rest of the room, which preserves a slightly different, rougher concrete floor (SU 8023) just beyond an ashlar block beneath it, where the distinction between the two SUs is a very clear line. Unfortunately, the plow marks make interpretation very difficult. Both SUs appear to be floors, and whether they were added at the same time or in different phases, at some point both were used concurrently to denote different use of the two spaces. Also of interest, possibly, is the fact that the circular cut SU 8008 was cut through SU 8023 tangential to both SU 8024 and the ashlar threshold 8019 (the same might be said for the parallel cut 8015 on the opposite (north) side of the room). Perhaps all these features were related, associated with a wine or olive press extending into Room I-1.
