I8/2 = - cleaning of the marmaro slab: stop the excavation of the west sector at the level of this slab, which can only be explained when the opening of the baulk I8/2 - I8/1 = Loc 487 (next season) - the enormous stone in the south-east corner of the square is not in place. block not dressed, barely roughed out no traces of plaster - joint perhaps, on the top (visible to the south) traces of sealing filled with plaster. see with Olivier. the stone was thrown back, not onto floor 477 itself, but onto a fill above floor 477. = forms part of the deliberate fill of the building ?
