Unit 19465

Category: Layer    dug in 2012

Area: North 

Interpretive Categories: Wall painting 

Data Category Information: In Situ: in situ; Location: wall/blocking; Material: plaster; Deposition: layered (wall plaster); Basal Spit: painted

Dimensions: 0.90 x 0.25 

Discussion: Red and grey geometric design.
Plaster layers with red and grey geometric design on eastern wall, revealed 2010. Excavated in order to investigate underlying layers. Slightly different texture on N end, layers more adhered and less easily separable. There is a repair to the wall associated with this unit/painting (a raised area). Northern end there is normal texture of wall plastering, southern end suffered episode of burning which makes layers more easily separated. This layer corresponds to the geometric painting that was excavated in 2010 (U.19051).

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.
