Unit 10718

Category: layer    dug in 2004

Area: North 

Interpretive Categories: foundation support,remnant of flooring 

Data Category Information: Location: building; Description: general; Material: white clay; Deposition: single

Dimensions: 6.25m x 38-26cm x 15cm 

Discussion: Very shallow layer of what appears to be mud brick against south wall of the area. Possibly the remains of some sort of buttressing of the walls and has a vertical line of salt running through it and what appears to be some packing material running through its center. It is possible that it was originally constructed from bicks lying on their sides.
LY - possibly the remains of flooring as otherwise no flooring has been identified in space
