Unit 3246

Category: layer    dug in 1998

Area: North 

Interpretive Categories: infilling 

Data Category Information: Location: building; Deposition: heterogeneous

Dimensions: 440 N-S x 150 W-E x 10 cm 

Discussion: Infilling in space 155.

This spit was started at NE corner of the space 155 and it extended towards S part of the area. Removal and the spit yielded of other features and indicated different deposition within the space 155. The dense plaster cluster in he NE corner where also ... .... (interference??) situated from space 154. It makes difficult of the entry to the room; if it (isues?) a (lend) of which standing feature? The angle of the collapsed plasters suggests that the accumulation form N to S. However, it is a position the comparable material butts to the bench which is situated in N area

Finds Room Information:

All material from site passes through the finds room for washing and separating before it is passed onto the various lab teams. The finds room keeps a basic inventory of what is found. A finds material type list is given here. Further analytical detail maybe provided by the Lab Team data below.

X Finds Material: nothing recorded
