Area: North 

 

Interpretive Categories: pit fill 

 

Data Category Information: Location: cut; Description: pit; Deposition: homogeneous

 

Dimensions: 68 x 40 x 10 cm 

 

Discussion: Pit fill-maybe two pits intercutting, but this is only suggested by the shape, and cut plan (see unit 1435). One of a group of pits cuts into the sub-floor packing of the platform F32- although not completely clear, seems as if the floors sealed all this pit- to be safe, I have made just the upper set of floors seal them in the matrix.
