Description:   The soil color is light brownish red. It is silty sand. Structure materials: limestone. Material size: 0.62 L, 0.62 W, 0.15 H. Material finish: squared. Material construction: n/a. Material bonding: n/a. Features: square cutting.
Notes:   This single squared block just inside the threshold at the southeast entrance to Room F was probably used as a step. A square cutting near the southeast corner of the block shows it is a reused block. It is laid on top of floor 568 with a 0.06m layer of red soil in between. This soil does not seem to correspond to any level dug in the previous excavations (see NB869 B92). We removed the block to excavate the floor below.
