Unit 22354

Category: Layer    dug in 2016

Area: South 

Interpretive Categories: building infill 

Data Category Information: Location: building; Deposition: heterogeneous

Description: room infill of sp.510 

Discussion: This unit was recognized by texture of deposit. The origin of the unit was a infill which is located in southern part of B.118. Also this unit is located above of the south wall of B.118 and between this wall and north wall of side room in sp.552. The units composition has changed from previous unit which is U.22352 as a midden layer. This unit consist of rubble and dump building materials. It has more dump mudbrick, plaster and possible mortar fragments. The rubble appear to more concentrated toward to eastern side of deposit. The deposits was accumulated 2 episodes. These are different types of episodes with rubble and dump infill material. The distribution of unit is east to west.
Beggining of the layer was consist of more mixed material with rubble and mixed dump deposit. And when we were digging this, it became as typical building clean infill. The unit may represent as a abandoned building infill.
