After excavation of context 1005 and the area of root disturbance (contexts 1027, 1029, 1032, 1033) the entire south extension was interpreted as containing one continuous layer, context 1025. This layer was interpreted as a lower support layer/leveling layer for context 1005 above. Alternatively, context 1025 could represent an earlier floor surface, due to its similar characteristics to context 1005.
Context 1025 was not excavated during the 2019 campaign. From surface inspection, it could be determined that the layer was heavily truncated by root disturbance, with larger stones more present in comparison to overlying layer 1005. This seems to support an interpretation as a support layer/leveling layer, but this hypothesis needs to be determined by future excavation.
In the southwest corner of Trench A, the stratigraphical relationship between contexts 1013 and 1025 still remains unclear as of end of excavation 2019. It may very well be that context 1013 gradually ends approximately half a meter from the edge of posthole 1031 and that no clear stratigraphic relationship between 1013 and 1025 can be established, i.e. contexts 1013 and 1025 are on the same stratigraphic level. However, this has to be established by future excavation.
