Category: Layer    dug in 2008

Area: TP 

Interpretive Categories: arbitrary layer,infill 

Data Category Information: Location: building; Deposition: heterogeneous

Dimensions: 2.96 x 0.80 x 0.15 

Discussion: It is an arbitrarly defined infill layer situated against the eastern edge of the wall of N-S alignment (12230). From the south was demarcated by a perpendicular wall (15891).
