Unit 22418

Category: Layer    dug in 2015

Area: South 

Interpretive Categories: Oven base 

Data Category Information: In Situ: in situ; Location: feature; Description: oven; Material: pise-like; Deposition: homogeneous

Discussion: Unit is a very highly degraded remnant oven base, in the location of later oven F. 5041, just N of wall f 5038. It consists only of the bottom floor of the oven, with a lipped edge preserved only in the se corner. The eroded state may have been caused by intentional destruction and collapsing of the oven in order to prepare for a later phase without an oven, and for the later floors that would extend over the area.
