Unit 16673

Category: Layer    dug in 2008

Area: North 

Interpretive Categories: deposit 

Data Category Information: Location: feature; Description: basin; Deposition: homogeneous

Discussion: A small layer between quernstone and basin. Stone and basin both assigned same unit number 16645. This layer given separate unit number because of nice traces of phytoliths. The quern stone seems to have been left in association with the plaster basin. This layer seems to have accumulated after the basin was left but the phytoliths might give information of use of basin. . Appears that dry sieve volume of zero is valid 19/08/09 SAJ
