Unit 20883

Category: Layer    dug in 2015

Area: North 

Interpretive Categories: Clay frame/makeup in crawl hole 

Data Category Information: In Situ: in situ; Location: wall/blocking; Material: pise-like; Deposition: homogeneous

Discussion: Recognised as massive clay patch on the W face of a wall F 3514. In its S part where crawlhole F 3504 was on. The unit was forming E "frame" of this crawlhole. Its N extent was however difficult to define thanks to U20883 similarity with the U20881- the bricks of the wall F 3514 and heavy erosion that effected the N part of the wall. But the bottom the unit seems gradually transcend in to the make up layer covering the treshold of the crawlhole.
