Unit 20897
Category: Layer dug in 2015
Area: South
Interpretive Categories: infill
Data Category Information: Location: building; Deposition: homogeneous
Discussion: An infill found under Sp 558, between new found wall (F8007 presumably of B43s side room) and F1857 (Sp 236 W wall excavated in 2014) it was decided to excavate it arbitrarily only top 20 cm was removed. The unit was heterogeneous. It seems to be completely different in the N were it is more sandy and homogenous. In S part dark grey bricks were found together with yellow mortar, the top 2 were clearly disarticulated, however, one more of them was found this time, aligning in to wall going almost parallel to F8007 and dividing the fill in to two units (not excavated).
