Unit 15369

Category: Cluster    dug in 2011

Area: Trench 5 

Interpretive Categories: Collapse,Fill Cluster 

Data Category Information: Location: building; Material: mix; Deposition: secondary deposition; Basal Spit: mudbrick, plaster, mortar

Dimensions: E-W 40cm, N-S 50cm, Depth 20cm 

Discussion: Unit is a cluster that contained a number of associated lumps of construction material. Located10cm North of cluster 15368 (pottery and bone cluster). 15369 lies just northeast of buttress Feature 5062 and immediately south of Feature 3346 (mudbrick construction feature). This cluster may be collapse from a building, but it ssems more likely that it was dumped, due to its limitted spatial range and simlar dimensions to cluster 15368.

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.
