| Notes: | Layer of soft soil extending E-W across room 6. A zig-zag line separates it from harder surface to the north. At the north, we come down on the same tile-filled surface as beneath 867, the same which also underlies 866 and the circular pit 9, which is now removed. In mid-excavation, we take a short cake/anise bread break.
