Data Category Information: Location: external
Discussion: This unit, the same as U.30773 and U.30823 and U.3087 belongs to the midden, which was truncated by a post-Neolithic burial (F.3994). It was placed in SW corner of our trench and is a part of the trench that was not destroyed by large post-Neolithic truncations.
Its soil was very soft and loose because of phytoliths inclusions. It had mostly gray and white colour with black spots in W part. It was layered with some lime, charcoal and clay inclusions. Some clay objects including a piece that may have been originated during figurine manufacture. Remaining finds comprised pottery, obsidian and animal bones.
