Unit 32494

Category: Cluster    dug in 2016

Area: South 

Interpretive Categories: Fundational deposit 

Data Category Information: Location: wall/blocking; Material: clayball; Deposition: primary deposition; Basal Spit: stones

Discussion: Cluster defined in the NE part of the Sp. 552, the side room of the building 160. This cluster is composed mostly from clay balls and stones. After the specialist’s feedback, seems that the stones are just natural and burnt, and no intentionally modified as a stone artefacts. For the other hand, the clay balls, a few of them complete, seems to be a bit unusual, because are quite big, and almost 700 gr weight. We related this cluster, with other two in the same area of this space (U32495 and 32600) and also with the cut U32615 and the arbitrary layer U32496. This three clusters and the other two units are related with the foundation of the wall F7847, a reform probably to consolidate and retain the north wall of that space F7841 that seems that probably was not stable enough.
We also want to notice that probably the clay balls (X6 and X8 from the floor U32469) and the stone X4 (from the floor U32469) can be also part of that cluster.
