Unit 20736

Category: Layer    dug in 2016

Area: TPC 

Interpretive Categories: make-up layer of the platform 

Data Category Information: In Situ: in situ; Location: feature; Description: raised area (platform); Material: pise-like; Deposition: homogeneous

Discussion: This is a very homogenous make-up layer of central platform (F.3855) in a sequence of plaforms located against eastern wall of B. 150 and belonging to the latest phase of its occupation. It was recognized by its different colour and texture. A number of x-finds was found in the layer. At the bottom of this unit in its NE corner a stone figurine of fat lady was found. Directly to the North another anthropomorphic smaller figurine was found. This figurine was placed inside a lump of marl, itself dumped into this make-up layer. Near the head of that figurine a galena and two blue beads were found. Similarly to the uppermost make-up layer of this platform, this unit in its NE section was partly truncated by later wall (F.3852).
