Examination of the floor at point E 23 = pt 87/1949
At the threshold of the room occupying the squares
22-24 DE, at the centre of which is point 86
of 1949, N side of this threshold, we left
the original floor of the gr. bat. in place. Its
surface is at c. 6 to 8 cm below the surface of the
threshold. This floor was numbered 2 by
Georgios in 1949.The sherds found since
the surface of this floor 2 (=
prob. orig. floor of the gr. building)
and the (?) following floor have
been put into a paper bag
identified E 23 under floor
called 2.
This following floor that one could
number 3 is indicated by
a whitish surface, earth
white chalky, hardened by
trampling (?) and below
earth less hard. On the other hand
on its surface rest some
shapeless stones which seem
to confirm that it is here a
floor surface. On this floor also
some sherds.
