Unit 21513

Category: Layer    dug in 2014

Area: North 

Interpretive Categories: bricks from N wall 

Data Category Information: In Situ: in situ; Location: building; Material: brick; Deposition: homogeneous

Discussion: U21513 unit number was allocated to wall F1022 bricks. The wall was heavily eroded at the top as it was close to surface and then exposed for a long period of time. As the building 113 is being excavated in section only E part of wall was excavated in 2014. 4 courses of bricks were excavated in the top course near the section. Small patch of plaster that extends beyond section was removed. The majority of wall excavated was therefore probably underneath the floor level of building 113. Only 4 bricks were preserved enough to measure them. Average size was about 1,10 m long, 0,3 m wide and 0,10m thick. The bottom most layer of bricks of this wall was abutted by lens/layer of yellow clay infill almost indistinguishable from the brick itself.

Finds Room Information:

All material from site passes through the finds room for washing and separating before it is passed onto the various lab teams. The finds room keeps a basic inventory of what is found. A finds material type list is given here. Further analytical detail maybe provided by the Lab Team data below.
