Unit 30273

Category: Layer    dug in 2013

 

Area: TPC 

 

Interpretive Categories: Floor makeup 

 

Data Category Information: Location: building; Description: general; Material: dark grey clay; Deposition: single; Basal Spit: unpainted

 

Discussion: This unit represents the makeup of floor f. 7153. The plaster on top of it was too partial and patchy for us to remove it as a separate unit. This unit was extremely uneven over the bottom of building 120, which may be related to how little effort seems to have been put into making the floor flat and even after terracing cut [30229] was made. At its base, a layer of plaster again seems to have been applied to the original Neolithic layer, perhaps as an original floor or alternatively in an attempt to initially flatten the surface. This unit was excavated by pick and shovel due to its compaction.
