Unit 1115
Category: layer dug in 1995
Area: North
Interpretive Categories: room fill
Data Category Information: Location: building; Deposition: homogeneous
Discussion: A fairly amorphous room fill which was taken down as one layer with 1102 and 1110 in adjacent squares, but in this square it appeared to be slightly more grey, therefore divided into new unit. Appears to butt up to more grey heap in NE corner but due to root action and erosion the relationship is unclear.
