Unit 2346

Category: layer    dug in 1997

Area: South 

Interpretive Categories: occupation 

Data Category Information: Location: building; Deposition: homogeneous; Basal Spit: basal deposit

Dimensions: 0.5m w-e, 0.7m n-s, 0.01 to 0.03m thick 

Discussion: Thin dark deposit in north east part of space 113/151 excavated around oven F87. Visually it resembles a midden deposit and probably represents an in-situ dirty accumulation which has been trampled into a surface. Much of the material probably derives from ovens F87 and F252. 

Execution: trowel

Consistency: moderately weak 

Colour: very variable but mainly 10YR 6/1 grey 

Texture: sandy silt loam 

Bedding: compound layered 

Inclusions: frequent charcoal flecks - 10%, frequent ashy material 20% 

Post-depositional Features: some cracking (recent) 

Basal Boundary: abrupt, distict, wavy, inclined downwards slightly from east to west
