Unit 2220

Category: layer    dug in 1997

Area: North 

Interpretive Categories: grave fill,room fill 

Data Category Information: none

Dimensions: 2 x 2 m 

Discussion: At first it was thought that there was another post-neol grave in the S part of this unit running E-W.
This was excavated 10 cm in depth with no signs of burial. Then it was abandoned to a separate unit but was excavated alongside the clear room fill on the NE part.
By the way, at the end of this arbitrary layer the grave pit had clearly manifested itself. So it will be excavated as a separate level in the next arb. layer.
As part of this unit the large clump of wall /brick/ plaster rubble in NW part of this unit was cleaned and further/wider exposed in the end of the unit. Plaster/wall line N-S at W. edge.
