The correspondance of the brown sections with the door-cuttings is striking. It seems certain that the black represents earth thrown in to fill up the spaces of the rooms. The brown earth appears in doors and walls, is the general fill just at the time of cave-in. The black earth was filled over this. [illegible] is part of the mud walls used with [illegible] to fill the [illegible] to fill the doorways only. The white regions might also be caused by the removal of stones. The brown fill is earlier than the black, and the places where there were no stones, i.e. doors. The black thus represents destroyed parts of the wall
