Discussion: fill of pillar in SW of building 80. a stone polisher had been placed on/over the surviving remains of the timber. This was the upper most object of a cluster of objects situated around the post including the above x finds and a mini clay balls and a group of broken obsidian along with what appears to be roughly shaped clay or marl fragments.
These appear to be a group of objects left over on the remains of the post then trickeling down the sides and back of the post as it degrades.
