Unit 30240

Category: Layer    dug in 2013

Area: TPC 

Interpretive Categories: Hearth 

Data Category Information: Description: fire spots (non-structured); Deposition: homogeneous

Discussion: This unit consisted of a clearly burned surfae with alot of charcoal. The extension of the layer can't be determined because of south trench wall, however it is clear from the section that it is situated above the floor infill layer, but since the barley deposit (U. 30252) is just above the floor, the hearth is stratigraphically placed above the floor infill. The finds indicate redeposited material, post-neolithic.
