Unit 14601

Category: Cut    dug in 2006

Area: North 

Interpretive Categories: post retrieval pit 

Data Category Information: Description: pit

Dimensions: 1.14x0.64x0.89 

Discussion: Pit was excavated to recover post that was set against east wall of building 59. Size of the post scar is 0.50m wide, which probably represent the width of the post. The post probably would have been structural supporting the roof along with the walls. Two x finds were recovered from the pits' fill on the base of the pit. X1, an angular fragment of bone and X2 a clay ball fragent. X1 was interesting as it was set firmly into the base and projected vertically up, suggesting it was intentionally disposed and placed. X2, was also on the base, buit it deposition is less clear.
