Unit 2765

Category: layer    dug in 1997

Area: South 

Interpretive Categories: dump,floor 

Data Category Information: Description: penning; Deposition: heterogeneous; Basal Spit: basal deposit

Dimensions: 1.00 EW x 1.50 N/S x o.10 m deep 

Discussion: Post house/floor usage dump or some form of disturbed surface. Possibly by animal truncation. Orange yellow organic? deposit seems again to lie on top of and on the base of this deposit, which also runs through it.
If orange/yellow deposit zone turns out to be coprolite then possibly animals were housed here. Much thicker to south than north, suggesting dumping specifically in this area.
