Feature 8 meas. 1.87 x 2.15 m, 57 cm deep, somewhat oval, vertical sides, a fairly level floor. 9 large slabs in te fil probably represent the remains of upper walls. One interior feature, a hearth against the E wall (Feature 60). Feature 60 meas. 65 x 35 cm, 10 cm deep. Sides and bottom of Feature 60 were heavily oxidized as in the E wall of the room above the pit.
