Unit 1740

Category: layer    dug in 1996

Area: South 

Interpretive Categories: oven fills 

Data Category Information: Location: feature; Description: oven

Dimensions: max N-S 1.24 m max W-E 0,55 m 

Discussion: Taking out a grey ashy layer which was uncovered after removing the floor on the hearth/oven. On the west part the oven looks now different: the soil which appeared is light brown and on the inside of the walls of the oven a reconstruction is visible. This reconstruction looks as if it rests on the original wall and goes deeper than the present floor, which rests on it. It is therefore an early feature.
