Unit 2074

Category: layer    dug in 1997

Area: South 

Interpretive Categories: floor makeup/levelling 

Data Category Information: In Situ: in situ; Location: floor (packing only); Material: pise-like; Deposition: homogeneous

Dimensions: 1.02m n-s, 0.76m e-w, 0.4m thick 

Discussion: Layer at eastern end of small room/platform in space 113, severely truncated by pit [2050]. It is probably related to floor (2072) directly above and may be a makeup/levelling deposit. At the basal boundary there were a number of patches of plaster/charcoal indicating that there had been a short time period between (2081) beneath and (2074) when it was a very temporary surface and some transient activities occurred.
