Unit 10733

Category: layer    dug in 2004

Area: North 

Interpretive Categories: midden layer (arbitrary) 

Data Category Information: Location: external; Deposition: finely bedded

Dimensions: 300cm x 34cm and 260cm x 30cm 

Description: fast track 

Discussion: This midden layer differes from the one above it (10732) by the color (which is dark brown instead of grey black), inclusions (it has fewer inclusions of plaster, charcoal, etc) and composition (layer consists of more clay than the unit above). Like 10732, this unit was left over from the clearing of space 229 because it was underneath F1604 and F1606. It is therefore the same as adjacent midden layers 11024 and 10721. The layers of this unit consist of clay layers inbetween mixed layers of a few layers of charcoal/ash. This unit is more homogeneous than 10732.

Finds Room Information:

All material from site passes through the finds room for washing and separating before it is passed onto the various lab teams. The finds room keeps a basic inventory of what is found. A finds material type list is given here. Further analytical detail maybe provided by the Lab Team data below.
