Unit 3656

Category: layer    dug in 1998

Area: South 

Interpretive Categories: floor make up 

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

Dimensions: 0.58 m E-W x 0.88 m N-S x 0.02 m deep 

Discussion: Small patch of brown material adjacent to eastern-most oven in 117. Petering out to the W. Appears to be the W continuation of (3647) from square to the E and overlies the same grey ashy layer. If this is so then it represents a broad layer which spreads out ?? under floor deposits and is therefore floor make up but also laps up unto the platform in SE corner thus also being a later pahse of this (see (3647)).

* Obsidian fragment x find is a small square flake taken untouched for possible scientific analysis. It is not to be touched or washed as analysis for possible wood making residue is required. 

Recognition: Thin layer of brown material underlying burnt material corresponding to (3647) in square to the E. 

Definition: Clear boundary with lower ashy material, Petering out to the W. 

Execution: Trowel and leaf trowel from E edge of square. 

Condition: Dry. 

Consistency: firm 

Colour: 10 YR 4/3 brown + partly 10 YR 5/4 yellowish brown 

Texture: silt loam 

Bedding: massive 

Inclusions: 1% small bone, 1% obsidian, 1% small stone, 2% charcoal flecks 

Post-depositional Features: salts 

Basal Boundary: clear/smooth/anthropogenic/sloping gently down to the W

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  

Finds Material Stored: nothing recorded
