Data Category Information: In Situ: in situ; Location: feature; Description: raised area (platform); Material: plaster; Deposition: layered (wall plaster); Basal Spit: painted

 

Discussion: This layer is the earliest plaster layer put on platform F. 7952, bench F. 7966, and wall F. 7712 as a single event. It scraped off of the layers below very easily, revealing the makeup of platform F. 7952 and a subsequent plastering of bench F. 7966. It joins with the paint on threshold F.22699, though this was excavated as a separate unit. This was the first plaster applied after post u. 22653 was established on the makeup of platform F. 7952. 

 

Consistency: friable, scrapes off easily 

Colour: white, painted red on top 

Texture: plaster 

Bedding: layered 

Inclusions: none 

Post-depositional Features: cutting of burial cuts u. 22679 and 22681; animal burrows 

Basal Boundary: clear, removing this layer revealed the separate construction of the bench F. 7966 on top of platform F. 7951
