Unit 13423

Category: Layer    dug in 2006

Area: North 

Interpretive Categories: bricky infill 

Data Category Information: Location: building; Deposition: homogeneous

Discussion: Bricky infill was mostly sterile with few finds. Only a small portion (the North) had plaster, the rest appears to have been scoured off. The walls also have no plaster. Wall to the South is particularly confusing. Small plaster lip to the north as well. A strange plaster ball was found on the floor, as was a nice obsidian projectile point. Lumpy plaster/floor bit to the West, unclear as to what it is. 

Recognition: bricky infill between three walls 

Definition: not very good, best to the West 

Execution: trowel excavated 

Condition: hot, dry, windy, dusty 

Consistency: compact 

Colour: red/orange and dark brown 

Texture: bricky/claylike 

Bedding: massive 

Inclusions: frequent animal bone; moderate pottery, obsidian flakes, stone; occasional shell; very occasional green stone point, plaster ball, obsidian projectile point (see x-finds) 

Post-depositional Features: animal burrows, some root activity 

Basal Boundary: reasonably flat, lumpy to the West
