SU 8170 served as the latest floor in room I7, certainly associated with walls 8038 and 8039 and probably originally with walls 8044 and 8045, though no such relationships are preserved. It is also likely stratigraphically equal to SU 8171 just to the west. This phase is associated with the pressing area in northern Room I1, and the basin In Room I8, so this smaller adjacent room was possibly used for storage purposes related to production. Detailed painted plaster was found in deposits in the room interpreted as collapse, suggesting that the room was nicely decorated; if so then it is possible that the room had an earlier use before the complex was used for production (e.g. perhaps a cubiculum or other house room, based on decor and size). Cf. room I8, which had red painted plaster on its southern wall (8044, which separated it from this Room I7).
