Unit 30718

Category: Layer    dug in 2013

 

Area: TPC 

 

Interpretive Categories: Pit fill 

 

Data Category Information: Location: cut; Description: pit; Deposition: homogeneous; Basal Spit: basal deposit

 

Discussion: This unit was recognized as circular and loose infill of pit F.7163. Process of establishing edges/boundary of this unit was easy because of its different colour-- grey and loose consistency of soil. This pit seems to be cut into the Neolithic deposit. Perhaps it truncated the Neolithic wall-structure in its south-east side. All time it was excavated by trowel. This pit contained few finds: pottery sherds, animal bones, and flakes of obsidian. It is hard to define the origin of this structure. There are a few similarities to other pit features, mostly grey infill and circular in shape. 

 

Consistency: loose 

Colour: grey 

Texture: silty loam 

Bedding: massive 

Inclusions: charcoal, deposit of calcium 

Post-depositional Features: animal burrows 

Basal Boundary: difference in hardness of soil-- bottom and on edge more hard. Different color of soil; became more yellow/orange.
