- The stratum extends above the surrounding stratum for the presence of large and medium (10-30 cm) inclusions of white stone, roughly hewn (and with traces of a bluish-gray mortar) and a large round piece of tufa 30 cm in length. Smaller roughly hewn white stones are found under the larger. All are dispersed in a sub-ovular pattern. The soil matrix is friable and charcoal inclusions are found in very low concentration, along with a random distribution of inclusions of small white stones, brick fragments, and ceramics in a medium concentration found within this matrix. Within the layer, other large fragments of broken brick and tufa vertically and horizontally placed create a smaller opening within the cut SU 8114. Some smaller stones were found, placed at the base of the stratum.
