Unit 3236

Category: layer    dug in 1998

Area: North 

Interpretive Categories: collapse 

Data Category Information: In Situ: non in-situ; Location: building; Material: brick&mortar; Deposition: heterogeneous

Dimensions: 28x100x5cm 

Discussion: The deposit which plaster was on top suggested to be a fallen building material for blockage although as the excavation advanced we realised that it was not deliberate action in between 154 and 155.

It seemed like a cluster of brick and plaster aggregates,. in the threshold accumulated by or during the infilling the area. Texture and structure of the fill which remaining homogenous all the way through in space 155 it has been connected to area 154 by this unit. No significance observed it was butting to the plaster walls .
