Unit 2748

Category: layer    dug in 1997

Area: South 

Interpretive Categories: plaster lining 

Data Category Information: In Situ: in situ; Location: feature; Description: oven; Material: plaster; Deposition: homogeneous

Dimensions: c. 30mm thick, covers c. 0.3m area of cavity 

Discussion: Small area of white plaster adhering to the inner face of the FI 82 at western end. Coincides exactly to location of the horncore (2701. x.1) that was set within (2701). The plaster overlay the baked clay lining (2717) therefore the sequence is earlier over construction (2717), plaster lining (2749) only at western end, packing (2700) and (2701) which housed the horn core.
