Unit 17665

Category: Layer    dug in 2008

Area: TP 

Interpretive Categories: infill layer 

Data Category Information: Location: cut; Description: foundation cut; Deposition: heterogeneous; Basal Spit: basal deposit

Dimensions: 5.43 x 0.50 x 0.13 

Discussion: This is an infill layer located against the N-S wall 17683, from its eastern side. It may have probably been associated with some kind of renovation episode of the above mentioned wall.
The cut (17666) was dug and then intentionally filled in with this rubbish infill.
It was very homogeneous and consisted of many constructional elements. Its basal boundary was arbitrarly defined. Lower part of theis deposit was recorded as unit 17678.
