this one brown on light yellow

Drawing: triangular pottery sherd with three horizontal bands at the bottom and three curved motifs above

the other a red band on very light yellow I think this clearly indicates, taking into account what we have found in the upper layers, that there was no hiatus between the layer below the fire and the layer above it. The fire should therefore be placed towards the XIVe century, perhaps towards the beginning or the 1st half of this one.

It should be noted that the top of the slabs being at 0,70, and the layer of fire beginning at 0,80, the 2 are roughly at the same level.

To the west of the large slabs and between the surface and the level of these we find the confirmation of what was observed above: Mycenaean pottery, Cypriot bowls, base ring ware all this of the XIVe probably . The fire is necessarily within the course of the XIVe century.
