Unit description: A small unit, all out of flotation (sample 1, flot #3207, >4mm, 100%). Largish unit for a floor unit, however. Fragments up to 3 cm, but mostly little 1 cm bits. Mostly sheep-size animals, some fish + frog + rodent. Even body part distribution. Weathering variable, most kicked around, some burning, fair amount digestion. Looks like fill. ##### This unit was mixed with 3565 and 3569 by a gust of wind. The information in the priority book about the 3 units was used to reconstruct what each was like. All 3 units are bagged together. ########Figurine Records: No GroundStone Records: No Heavy Residue Records: No Microfaunal Records: No
