Unit 19155
Category: Layer dug in 2016
Area: South
Interpretive Categories: Makeup layer
Data Category Information: In Situ: in situ; Location: floor (packing only); Material: pise-like; Deposition: homogeneous
Description: A makeup layer pisé-like covering te surface of the north-western platform of the space 135.
Discussion: A makeup layer pisé-like covering tHe surface of the north-western platform of the space 135. This is a makeup layer peeling on a floor(19196) and truncated by burial F7418. This makeup layer belong to the plaster floor (21783).
It was very hard to understand the activities on this makeup layer because of the burial truncation, but it is for sure related to the floor 21783. Because after removing this makeup layer we could define as well the edge of the buial cut (F 7418) exposed since 2013, cuting the floor underneath (19196).
