Category: Layer dug in 2007
Area: TP
Interpretive Categories: infill
Data Category Information: Location: external; Deposition: coarsely bedded (dumps)
Dimensions: 1.80 x 1.00 x 0.18 m
Discussion: It is a midden layer situated against the southern and eastern edge of walls of W-E alignment recorded as units 13561 and 13563. The southern part of this unit is palced beyond the excavated area. Fragments of mudbricks possibly remains of the partition walls, recorded as units 13594, 13597 and 13598 were discovered in the eastern part of the unit. It is older than these bricks, which themselves were probably functionally associated with the infil recorded as unit 15208. The bedding was homogeneous and it contained many organics materials, mainly cattle bones. Additionaly, a small cluster of animal bones was deposed below these mudbricks.
