Unit 23023

Category: Layer    dug in 2017

Area: North 

Interpretive Categories: interwall infill 

Data Category Information: Location: between walls; Deposition: heterogeneous

Description: Western Interwall infill between B1 and B131 

Discussion: This unit number was taken at the beginning of the 2017 excavation campaign because a figurine was found while cleaning the North trench. The new unit number was kept because 22613 in geodatabase corresponds with interwall infill between buildings 1 and 131 east of niche F7986 - just in case that these two deposits prove different once excavated.

Layer exposed after remove the western part of the northern wall of B-131 (F 7707) in the Sp 504. This units belongs the interwall infill between the walls of B-1 and B-131 placed here after the construction. The layer was quite lost and very damage for the burning and also for different animal borrows. In the upper part was even worse, mostly for the exposure since many years. This layer it contains an important quantity of artefacts a few them had been X-finded. (27/06/17-CB)
