Unit 8212
Category: layer dug in 2001
Area: North
Interpretive Categories: wall plaster
Data Category Information: none
Dimensions: 1.30 X 0.08 (thickness)
Discussion: This unit is the wall plaster of a truncated wall that joined (at the bottom) with floor 5 of F.162 platform. The tan packing is the same packing that underlaid floor 5. The unit became mixed deposit of plaster and packing, because the plaster wall layer we were searching for was also behind a layer of packing. There were high accumulation of salts between the unit sediments and plaster layer underneath. The deposits were also moist.
