Unit 10205

Category: layer    dug in 2004

Area: North 

Interpretive Categories: room fill 

Data Category Information: Location: building; Deposition: homogeneous

Description: FT 

Discussion: Nurcan. Pottery from it possibly level 5
It is a homogenous fill but result of potentially more than one event. Most of it is just infill of space 227, earth brought from somwhere else. That is probably why the big bones (posssibly result of a feasting event) are spread all over in the fill. That is probably why there are also some human bones in it.
Besides the filling event, 10205 consists also of the colapse of the walls of the room.
Fill 10205 rests partly directly on the N-E platform

Unit is roughly equivalent to 11955 (FS 18/07/09)
Volume roughly estimated - FS

have checked flot and archive sample database - no samples were taken. Presumably this unit dates to 2004 Fast track policy. Have assumed therefore there was no dry sieve - FS 2009

Finds Room Information:

All material from site passes through the finds room for washing and separating before it is passed onto the various lab teams. The finds room keeps a basic inventory of what is found. A finds material type list is given here. Further analytical detail maybe provided by the Lab Team data below.
