Unit 18155

Category: Layer    dug in 2009

Area: South 

Interpretive Categories: floor sequence 

Data Category Information: Location: building; Description: general; Material: mix (dark grey&white); Deposition: composite (floors/bedding/plaster/packing/occupation)

Discussion: Floor layers in buildings adjacent to south wall. At least 12 layers of floors. Must have been a long lived building. 

Recognition: laminated floor sequence, truncated by 18162 

Definition: clear 

Execution: mini-mattock as only small area of floor remains, taken out as one unit with microstratigraphy to record sequence 

Condition: cool 

Consistency: compact 

Colour: laminations of white plaster, grey surfaces and mid-greyish brown makeup layers 

Texture: silty clay 

Bedding: compound 

Inclusions: occasional plaster and occasional charcoal flecks 

Post-depositional Features: truncation to east by 81162 part of building built on slope so south floor layers have eroded 

Basal Boundary: truncation

Finds Room Information:

All material from site passes through the finds room for washing and separating before it is passed onto the various lab teams. The finds room keeps a basic inventory of what is found. A finds material type list is given here. Further analytical detail maybe provided by the Lab Team data below.

X Finds Material: nothing recorded  

Finds Material Stored: nothing recorded
