Unit 22713

Category: Layer    dug in 2015

Area: TPC 

Interpretive Categories: Rubble infill of bin 

Data Category Information: Location: feature; Description: bin; Deposition: homogeneous

Discussion: Unit has been defined by the containment with the bin feature F7197 and also its inclusions of charred seeds. This unit is likely to represent collapsed material from the buildining (sp. 493) rather than its original contents and is similar in comparison to the rubble layer above (U20703). The unit contains small lenses of burned clay and also small pockets of charred grain (barley). This has been taken as a separate botanical sample (s4). This may have been from a hanging basket that had fallen from the ceiling during the burning event which became incorporated within the rubble fill. The unit ends on top of a compact layer of dark burned grey clay. 

Consistency: moderate compaction with loose pockets

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.
