Notes:   Structure 1195 was a thin, compact white clay floor (ca. 1cm thick). It was laid on top of 1197, a dark red deposit, that was probably a leveling fill for the construction of this floor.
This floor is the second (middle) in a series of three floors: the first, 1184, was a compact clay floor ca. 7cm above 1195; 1195 is the second; and the third is a compact earth floor ca. 3cm below 1195, into which the cooking pot and an unfired clay feature is embedded. Perhaps allthree floors are different phases of the same structure? It is difficult to understand their relationship to each other since all three have been cut on three sides. Only the lowest floor, 1203, shows any clear physical relationship with an architectural feature, as it lips up over the stone feature with posthole, 1196.
1195 was removed together with the underlying leveling fill 1197.
