  • dense layer of pebbles and fragments of artificial components closely related to 4017 in room I, building I
  • It was originally thought that 4154 was part of the prepartation system for 4017, but it does not pass under this mortar level. They do however, seem to sit on the same earth layer into which a number of skeletons were buried. The western limit of the context was the most difficult to discern since the main charateristic of the context, its compaction, was missing in the west where the context had less components and more earth.
