This locus is located between 190 and 290 cm from fixed point in the 3rd A support. This locus contains grey-brownish soil and many stones. It becomes visible that step 43 is higher than the other steps in the stairs. There is a second layer of stone below the top stones. At the bottom of this small locus is a large stone that might be step 44 or a floor level, this has to be seen in the future. However the total width is more than any other step so far.
