Unit 7825

Category: layer    dug in 2003

Area: TP 

Interpretive Categories: pit infill 

Data Category Information: Location: cut; Description: pit; Deposition: heterogeneous

Dimensions: 3.00 x 1.20 x 0,55 

Discussion: This was a large pit. Its N and E boundaries were very clear because the sediment in this part was very loose. Towards S and W it became more diffuse and compact and this boundary was not clear. In W part the sediment was more ashy, loose layered. Pieces of pottery found there were much bigger than in other parts of the unit. IT is not clear whether we were dealing with one pit, and that is why I decided to stop the exploration at this level although it was not the bottom of the pit.
