Unit 30719

Category: Layer    dug in 2013

 

Area: TPC 

 

Interpretive Categories: Pit fill 

 

Data Category Information: Location: cut; Description: pit; Deposition: homogeneous; Basal Spit: basal deposit

 

Discussion: This unit was recognized as a dark, compact semicircular deposit below wall f.3948 (u.30297). It is likely a layer of fill put into pit f.7164 in order to level it for the construction of wall f.3948, as pit f.7167 may have posed a challenge. It contained very few finds, which is consistent with an interpretation of this layer as structural. It was excavated by trowel. 

 

Consistency: compact bits but friable at bottom, immediately above cut [u.30729] 

Colour: dark grey, specks of orange 

Texture: silty clay loam 

Bedding: massive 

Inclusions: pieces of mud-brick, very minimal charcoal 

Post-depositional Features: animal burrows, digging of robber's trench f.3987, building of wall f.3948, digging of pit f.3986 

Basal Boundary: clear-- came down on bright orange mud-brick
