Unit 18780

Category: Layer    dug in 2011

Area: South 

Interpretive Categories: Room Fill 

Data Category Information: Location: building

Dimensions: E-W= 4.5m x N-S= 2m x D= 0.34m 

Discussion: Upper room fill, possıbly identical to and arbitrarily split from (18778) above. Lies on the interface between B.89 and B.76 construction and may in fact be more correctly associated ın terms of functions, perhaps as a levelling/preparation deposıt. Appears to finally seal walls of B.89 and those of B.76-on constructıon ınterface of two buildıngs. 

Recognition: Filling Sp379; Bounded by walls on all sides 

Definition: Clearly Defined 

Execution: Mattock, trowels 

Condition: dry 

Consistency: Very compact 

Colour: Mid Grey Brown 

Texture: Slightly sandy silty 

Bedding: Fairly homogenousö but mixed material, massive 

Inclusions: occasional: mod. Charcoal flecks; v. Frequent brick 

Post-depositional Features: Occasional bioturbation; heat affected at top from burning of overlaying building 76 

Basal Boundary: indistinct-possibly arbitrary-apparently slightly denser brick debris and plaster.
