B. The deposit over the houses can be divided into two levels: accumulation over the floors (1), and tumble (2). Due to the shallowness of the site, it was not possible to find undisturbed tumble in all the rooms where this doubtless once existed. (1) Considerable pottery was found in the accumulation levels; in some cases the pottery lay directly upon the original floors, in others upon the accumulation. Since the difference in level was often slight and it was sometimes uncertain to which the pottery belonged, it has all been considered together. The levels are: 4:1, 9.40/9.55 to 9.76; pit; 4:2, 9.10/9.58 to 9.22/9.40; [handwritten: 9.21] on 9.14/9.44, pit; 4:4, 8.94/9.12 to 4:3, on 9.30/9.44, pit; 4:6, 9.37 to 9.49/9.62; 9.02/9.22, pit; 4:5, 9.62/9.79 to 9.74; pit; 4:7a, 9.83 to 9.71 floor; 4:9, 9.92/10.12 to 9.92/10.16 4:8, ash in oven, pot sunk into 9.55; 4:7, 9.52 to 9.62/9.83 4:7a, 9.83 10.00/10.02, pits; 4:12, on 10.57; 4:13, on 9.92/10.16 Several pots were found at these levels:
