Photos Bam: 39.73 74 at 8.82

We have cleared to a distinct floor at 8.82. It is of grey-brown earth with great quantities of small bits of chavara. The rim of a pithos belonging to a lower level projects just above the floor, which is cut out for it. It thus belongs to the 8.82 level.

26-4-39 Digging below 8.82 we have found a gritty red-brown level at 8.96. Digging below 8.96 we start to find a sandy, dark grey level, probably a floor, at 8.981. Dig below 8.98 and find a floor of clay and chavara at 8.89
