Unit 20719

Category: Layer    dug in 2016

Area: TPC 

Interpretive Categories: fire spot 

Data Category Information: Description: fire spots (non-structured); Deposition: heterogeneous

Description: The fire spot located near northern wall (8288) of Space 578. 

Discussion: This is an indistinct fire spot located underneath the previous fire spot (31866) and most likely it comprises its earlier phase. The unit was layered and have internal ashy layers and strations. It is located next to the northern wall (F.8288) of space 594. It has been originally recognized as an oven due it its distinct brown edges which seemed to be a constructional element. After excavating the unit, it became clear that this intepretation does not hold.
