Unit 11016
Category: layer dug in 2004
Area: North
Interpretive Categories: fill,Floor
Data Category Information: In Situ: non in-situ; Location: external
Discussion: We excavated this beige, friable upper layer in order to further descend and expose the "new" wall on the S side of this unit (visible initially as a stucco line on the surface" and the mudbrick wall on the N side of this unit. At the base of this unit, plaster floor was exposed which abuts the mudbrick wall feature 1752 to the south. The mudbrick wall continues to the W on the W side of pit cut 1751. There is another plaster surface to the N of this segment, termed F. 1753. There was a high density of artifacts in this unit, including bone, obsidian, and worked stone.
Recognition: Descended onto this natural layer via unit 11007 on the East, and 11013 on the West.
Definition: Bordered by mudbrick wall on N side, 1055 E grid line on one side, "new" mudbrick wall on S side, and unexcavated portion on W side.
