Unit 3793

Category: layer    dug in 1998

Area: South 

Interpretive Categories: floor debris 

Data Category Information: Location: building; Description: general; Material: occupation; Deposition: multiple

Dimensions: 0.35 m N-S; 0.08 m wide; up to 0.02 m thick 

Discussion: Not sure of how to interpret this unit. Narrow semi-circular band of material around edge of pit (3723), similar in appearance to the pit fill (3721) but darker brown colour and stratigraphically under (3723) and presumably truncated by it on the E edge?
Alternatively pit (3723) cut with a step/ledge at the top and (3793) as a fill?? but I'm not very convinced by this. If so then (3723) would cut (3794).

Probably small remnant of occupation/floor (SF). 

Recognition: Recognised when excavated pit (3723), similar texture, rough crumbly surface, to pit fill (3721) but darker brown colour.

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.
