Recipe Details
Ingredients
lime
Preparation Steps
A collapsed lime plaster floor fragment was identified below a terracing wall and above midden layers in the chimney 1 section of drainage channel DR-2 (p. 225, 228). Geochemical analysis of this layer showed a distinct increase in Sr and Ca, attributed to the mineral composition of the floor (p. 230).

Evidence
"Below, a collapsed lime plaster floor fragment is visible."
Remarks
The layer containing the floor fragment also showed a distinct decrease in K, Mg, Fe, S, and Mn, which might indicate a 'clean' surface (p. 230). Such floor fragments are common in PPNA/PPNB structures at Göbekli Tepe, often used in conjunction with bone-tempered mortar (p. 224, 230).
