Unit 20757

Category: Layer    dug in 2016

Area: TPC 

Interpretive Categories: layer of infill 

Data Category Information: Location: building; Deposition: heterogeneous

Discussion: That was a first layer of infill placed between the walls of Space 574: western - F.7172, northern F. 7484, eastern F. 7252, and southern F. 7253. It was very compact and comprise many pieces of bricks or bulks of clay. After removing this layer there appeared a shape of pit (F3869). Hovewer, during exploration of the pit in its infill there were found many pieces of late potery. Becaus eof that it seems possible, that pit truncated also that layer, and was unvisible on it surface because this infill was exposed in 2013 and and underwent different destructions, mostly soil drying.
It seems highly possible that this unit and another one localized below (20784) were this same one.

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.
