Interpretation
-
- Layer of rubble extending across most of trench 4. This was visible inside and outside the structures within the trench, although it was slightly thicker towards the western end of the trench nearer the building. This layer likely represents the uppermost level of rubble demolition of the structures in trench 4, possibly spread out and levelled off by gravel 4001
