Unit 20202

Category: Layer    dug in 2012

Area: North 

Interpretive Categories: plastered bricks in fill 

Data Category Information: none

Dimensions: 1,30 m E-W, 1,60 m N-S 

Discussion: First interpreted as platform remnants in the SW corner of Space 40. Now it seems that it was just plastered bricks in the infill that looked like a construction. We could not erase U20202 though, as we have sampled from it and attributed an X find to it.
The eroded surface and the fact that this unit was half excavated stratigraphically too early by a quick student working on the grave cluster in the north made it take some time before the mistake was realized.

UPDATE 2013 BT
Keeping unit as is. Changed flotation sample numbers and info. This is a layer, although poorly defined and not further explored due to the large number of skeletons uncovered immediately north of it.

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.
