Unit 20865

Category: Layer    dug in 2014

 

Area: South 

 

Interpretive Categories: Floor plaster 

 

Data Category Information: Location: building; Description: general; Material: white clay; Deposition: single; Basal Spit: unpainted

 

Discussion: This unit represents the patchy plaster floor in the W of space 370. It is poorly preserved to the south, but lips onto platform f. 3507 in the north. Its patchiness is likely due to scouring, and it was extremely difficult during excavation to tell apart the thin floor laminations across this space. It lips onto platform f. 3507 and forms part of its southern modification (u. 20867) with which it is entirely contiguous; there is no physical boundary whatsoever. This layer was so thin across the space, however, that its remaining patches were removed by leaf trowel alone.
