Unit 30576

Category: Layer    dug in 2013

Area: North 

Interpretive Categories: infill within bin 7139 

Data Category Information: Location: feature; Description: bin; Deposition: heterogeneous

Discussion: The infill was placed within the bin F.7139 located in the eastern part of space 511, just beside the Western face of the wall F.7126. It was comprised mostly of the same material as the room fill (U.20988) that covered the whole interior of the mentioned side-room. Consequently, there were a number of brick-like components and small pieces of plaster. The finds uncovered within the infill were highly fragmented. Taking into consideration all the above aspects it seems that the bin was empted just before the abandonment. Due to unclear purposes of the feature and its unique nature samples were taken from lower part of the deposit.
