Unit 20872
Category: Layer dug in 2014
Area: South
Interpretive Categories: Floor makeup
Data Category Information: In Situ: in situ; Location: building; Deposition: homogeneous
Discussion: This unit represents the makeup of one of the floors extending across sp. 370. It lips up to platform F.3507's earlier southern boundary (before the addition of u. 20867). It has been eroded away by scouring to the south, where we did not uncover a successive plaster floor below. This makes sense-- the southern limit is excavation is close to the center of our building. This unit is presumed to have once been contemporaneous and contiguous with u. 20874, though it is extremely difficult to tell apart the thin floor laminations in this space through all of the cutting and cracking.
