Unit 19602

Category: Layer    dug in 2011

Area: South 

Interpretive Categories: occupation derris 

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

Dimensions: NS- 1.82 m EW 1.60 m 

Discussion: This presents occymotion layers, below the yellow-brown (18696). It is broken toward the western edge by the repeated by used area for raucing out me hearth ashes (see 18697), as well as by the extensive cracking that marks the entre SE area. It is also broken by the ladden scar F.3523. As with the floor layers postdating it, the SE corner of this deposit is increasingly friable and humus rich. Removing this layer revealed a line plaster segmenting off the SE corner. Towards this plaster, the basal boundary was increasingly blurrea causing excawators to leave some soll a of extremely similar composition to that in (19602)which will be removed as part of the ash layer (19604). The basal boundary of this layer toward the northeastern edge to very clear a plaster floor was revealled. 

Recognition: clear colour texture change from yellow-brown(18696)
