Unit 16695

Category: Layer    dug in 2008

Area: North 

Interpretive Categories: Painted wall plaster 

Data Category Information: In Situ: in situ; Location: wall/blocking; Material: plaster; Deposition: layered (wall plaster); Basal Spit: painted

Dimensions: width: 1.06m, height:0.15m, thickness 0.002m 

Discussion: Red and black geometrical paint on white plaster, truncated by excavation in previous years. Possibly linked to wall painting 13669, which was conserved and lifted in 2006. This painting is likely one of the earliest and is associated with the earlier phases of the NW platform F1651, and the earliest phase of the building.
