A layer of yellowish-brown silty sand which sits bellow c909 and inside the architectural structure c907. There are a moderate number of animal bones which sit in highly concentrated areas in the north east section of th e context surrounded by high bioturbation. Context includes frequent inclusions of small pottery mostly in the western side ontop of c912, a possible floor surface and as such could be a dwelling deposition from use of the structure.
