Description SU 7010 contains material from the NE section of the western part of the trench. This debris is lighter in color and more compact than that in SUs 7008 and 7009. It appears to be fallen architectural debris with more plaster/mortar debris than other SUs. Excavated to level of area to the east—i.e. where DOA excavations dug N-S wall (7011_f1). It appears to be a clump of fallen debris that fell from N and settled against SE-NW fallen wall 7008_f1. Debris beneath this SU is like debris excavated beneath SU 7008 to the west.
