Unit 23967

Category: Layer    dug in 2017

 

Area: TPC 

 

Interpretive Categories: constructional layer 

 

Data Category Information: In Situ: in situ; Location: feature; Description: raised area (platform); Deposition: homogeneous

 

Discussion: It was a constructional layer on the platform F.8661, along with unit 23966. It was rather firm and seems to have been directly related to unit 23969, which was a constructional layer of another platform (F.8660) located to the north. U.23969 was much looser in consistency and u. 23967 formed a moulding around it. This moulding related to its S edge and possibly also its W edge (not visible on the photos since it was excavated as a part of the platform surface u.23968). U.23967 was placed directly on an earlier platform (F.8670) and partly on the platform to its north (F.8669).
