Unit 30782

Category: Layer    dug in 2013

Area: TPC 

Interpretive Categories: mudbrick and oil in SW corner 

Data Category Information: Deposition: heterogeneous

Discussion: This is a layer of soil mixed with the mudbrick in the SW corner of Trench 2. It was distinguished some time ago, hovewer it was dug now, as the ladder stands in this place. It is a part of an undisturbed sequence, which remained untouched by later truncations that destroyed a large part of B. 121. Its stratigraphical position is unclear as it is not connected by any feature or building. It is truncated by pit cut (F.7255, see plan no 13/355, U. 30822).
The layer consists of multicoloured silty clay soil. On top in its W part, there were two big orange bricks. A few much smaller fragments of bricks were also found inside the layer. Other inclusions comprised of numerous small animal bones.

Finds Room Information:

All material from site passes through the finds room for washing and separating before it is passed onto the various lab teams. The finds room keeps a basic inventory of what is found. A finds material type list is given here. Further analytical detail maybe provided by the Lab Team data below.
