Interpretive Categories: occupation 

 

Data Category Information: Location: building; Description: general; Material: occupation; Deposition: multiple

 

Discussion: occupation debris accumulated to north of space 334, contained by walls to either side.

Whilst sense was that this material accrued as small desposits in thin laminates they were diffuse and hard to see or follow, lenses would be apparent but disappear, therefore indicative of continuous turbation

Rich in debris, typical of 'small room' occupation accumulation, represents earlist occupation phase. whilst basin F.4027 constructed over this horzon, it is likely that some of this material is associated with the use of the basin and therefore on matrix it has been reassigned as later than basin 

 

Consistency: soft and friable 

Colour: mid brown grey 

Texture: soft ashy silt 

Bedding: diffuse, whilst no clear horizons to follow the deposits were laid as discreet laminates, 

Inclusions: charcoal, bone, obsidian, relativel rich as compared to surround 

Post-depositional Features: animal runs 

Basal Boundary: diffuse, merged with underlying layer
