Unit 3764

Category: layer    dug in 1998

Area: South 

Interpretive Categories: floor 

Data Category Information: Location: building; Description: general; Material: non-white laid floor; Deposition: multiple

Dimensions: 0.45 m E-W x 0.35 m N-S width; 0.01 m thick 

Discussion: Unit identified during excavation of (3763), continued on from (3763) but change to dark brown material that came up in larger fragments than (3763) also. Could not establish relationship between (3763) and (3764), but decided distinct enough to justify separate unit. Presumably may signify material being trampled in as that part of the floor, comparison of samples with (3763) results of sampling may give a more specific interpretation. 

Recognition: Recognised during excavation of (3763), continued on from (3763), could establish no relationship between them, but decided distinct enough from (3763/3751) that would separate into another unit. 

Definition: Clear. 

Execution: Trowel, handpick. 

Condition: Dry. Surface; smooth/flat - inclined slightly to W. 

Consistency: friable (less powdery than (3763)) breaks up into larger lumps on excavating 

Colour: 10 YR 4/3 brown (dry) 

Texture: clayey silt 

Bedding: massive 

Inclusions: n/a 

Post-depositional Features: 15% salt flecks at basal boundary

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
