Unit 11391
Category: Layer dug in 2005
Area: South

Data Category Information: Location: building; Deposition: homogeneous; Basal Spit: basal deposit
Discussion: KJLT; the plan was to excavate the unit down to the floor, which appeared to be plastered, the plaster however that we could see continuing down from the platform did not continue and instead we excavated down to a compact grey area that we think is floor, even though it has no plaster on it.
Deliberate room fill, few finds.
SMc ; Fairly uniform deposit, peels off onto p[laste"r in places, in other areas, interface a little diffuse. Mix of building debris finely chopped.
