Unit 13061

Category: Layer    dug in 2006

Area: TP 

Interpretive Categories: infill 

Data Category Information: Location: between walls; Deposition: heterogeneous

Dimensions: 1.50 x 1.00 x 0.17 

Discussion: It is an infill layer situated between two walls (11764 and 13059), comprising fragments of constructional elements. Basal bondary was irregular and was sloping eastwards. Western section of this unit was placed on a floor fragment recorded as unit 13067, while its eastern part was deposited on rubble composing on bricks fragments.
An extent of this infill is impossible to reconstruct as its western part was excavated by Mellaart in the 1960s andhis field reports are unavailable. This unit is certainly associated with postabandonment phase of yet unspecified building of which one of the walls was wall recorded as unit 13059. it means this deposit is younger than ths building, which is probably dated to phase III.

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.
