Data Category Information: In Situ: in situ; Location: building; Material: plaster; Deposition: homogeneous; Basal Spit: unpainted
Description: composite deposit. 3 distinct laminations: All very brittle. White 'plaster' (5mm thick) light pinkish red clay (9mm thick) and mid gray clay (11mm thick). Very occasion small fragments of fired day in pink lamination. Frequent phytoliths in gray lamination.

Discussion: re-Lining of Oven F.7953: 22654 peeled off of 32375 - the earlier clay linings of the oven. The grey lamination of 22654 can be seen as a levelling/repair layer that was patially though evenly fired and served to seal and level the underlying fragmented clay linings 32375. did the oven need re-insulating? The fired clay lamination then sealed this repair and served as a base for the ultimate plaster lining of the Oven.
