Unit 15200

Category: Layer    dug in 2007

Area: TP 

Interpretive Categories: infill 

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

Dimensions: 1.56 x 0.98 x 0.12 m 

Discussion: This is a compound layer that consists of not only artefactual elements of inclusions like pottery, bones, shells and obsidian which are relatively few, also some aggregates, namely fragments of mudbricks and wall/floor plaster. The layer is situated under an infill recorded as unit 13062, which in eastern part was truncated by two burial pits (features 1173 and 1922). The northern and southern boundaries of this layer are made of mud-brick, units 11764 and 13594 respectively, which represent an older phase of human activity at this place . The eastern boundary of u. 13596 is clear but irregular while the western is a perpendicular wall (?) represented by two mud-bricks (unit 13598).

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.
