Tr. 20:13c (1954): The definition of Room 7 of House ↃↃVI was achieved by this trench. At least one additional adjoining room to the SE indicates that this was a large house. The bed rock at floor-level was badly eroded except in one spot which had, by contrast, preserved a piece of cement-like flooring. There was no indication of more than one level. In the debris covering floor level only plain wares, mostly PWn II, were found. The stratum above this had a high proportion of archaic and later wares.

Sherd bag cards: 20:13c Top soil; do., In red earth to tops of walls; do. From below top of walls to bed-rock.
