Interpretive Categories: plaster floor on platform 

 

Data Category Information: Location: building; Description: raised area (platform); Material: white clay; Deposition: multiple

 

Dimensions: 0.01 x 0.03m thick 

 

Discussion: Eight floor layers removed as a single unit over platform F.2225 - no association with only abutting bench F.2213 and North South wall F.2215. The last grey floor in the sequences was particularly rich with phytoliths. The removal of these layers revealed more of the wall painting on the west facing wall F.2215.

*The floor thickness varies from 0.01m - 0.03m thick. The thickest section is drawn above to show the layering and came from the South East corner (level 2). 

 

Recognition: plaster layers covering platform F.2225 

Definition: good - truncated to the North and West (erosion) 

Execution: trowel excavated 

Condition: cool and dry 

Consistency: firm (solid well cemented floors) 

Colour: mainly grey floors 

Texture: clay plaster 

Bedding: layered
