Unit 31161

Category: Layer    dug in 2013

Area: Trench 5 

Interpretive Categories: plaster, Part of bin/basin feature walls 

Data Category Information: none

Discussion: Unit 31161 was first interpreted as a piece of U.31162. However, when I took a closer look, I realized that it could be part of a third small basin within F.3377. When examined together with U.31160, there seemed to be a third basin that was disturbed by bioturbation. When I excavated between the two units, there was plaster that supported the interpretation. The unit was comprised of an outer coating of white plaster covering an inner gray plaster. Since the unit was so small, the entirety was collected as flotation and archive samples.
