Category: Cluster    dug in 2000

Area: Trench I 

Interpretive Categories: Activity area 

Data Category Information: Material: pottery; Deposition: secondary deposition; Basal Spit: Stone objects, obsidian, bone, mortar, plaster, mu

Discussion: The cluster was found when 3454 had been dug. There wasn't any structure or floor/surface related to the cluster.

It was given 35 'x' finds numbers, most of them are pot sherds and the rest of the finds are stone objects like pounding stones, pestles, worked ochre pieces, chalk pieces and between the finds mudbrick, mortar and plaster remains.

As it is seen below this soil layer, there are more finds which can be included in the same cluster.
