Many finds were found up to 1.59 meters below the hull. Here the hull planking is missing yet the granite blocks are located as if the ceiling planking was there
At first the blackened parts of the blocks were thought to be fire soot related, but upon closer inspection on the surface it appeared to be organic discoloration
