Units 9 + 12: Continue clearing the 10.00 = 10.02 floor in unit 9 and the 10.05 in unit 12 (formerly called unit 9 South). Find a wall of clay and some stones between units 9 + 12. The north part of unit 12 ends at a floor of sandy red-brown earth with some ash, at 10.05. In the south the fill continues on down to a very sandy layer at 10.20. This partly covers pot in situ, so it is not a floor. Extend in units 10 and 11.
