Unit 3398

Category: layer    dug in 1998

Area: South 

Interpretive Categories: compound make up layer? 

Data Category Information: In Situ: in situ; Location: floor (packing only); Material: pise-like; Deposition: homogeneous

Dimensions: 0.60 W-E x 0.34 N-S 

Discussion: Compund layered make up in NW corner of space 117. 

Recognition: When layer (3342) was removed in the N-E corner of this square a compound layer of white brownish and light gray deposit appeared. 

Definition: To the N it abutts the wall, to the E it continues into the baulk section which was included under the same number of this because it was too small and we are certain that they are the same deposit. To the S and W the compound layers are worn away obliquely to show the difference within the deposit.

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.
