Data Category Information: In Situ: in situ; Location: feature; Description: pedestal/podium/plinth; Material: plaster; Deposition: homogeneous; Basal Spit: unpainted
Discussion: Unit is a relatively thick deposit of clumpy, but not very compacted plaster, which appears to the unelevated plaster events u.21737 of the small plat. F.7410, it appears to be a construction event like u. 21775 (associated with the main platform) that serves as a plaster extension that causes a course of brick and mortar just in of the features built against wall f. 5014. It must be a continuation of the plastering over the line of brick and mortar perhaps in order to prepare for a thinly plastering event over f.21737 or to cover the bricks after new fine burial or aesthetic purposes was ascribed, either way it does appear to be an intentional constructional plaster the hearth, in order to match f. 3440, 7411 and later plastering events where could over but brick course.
