Unit 3913

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: 1.36 E-W x 0.9 m N-S x 10 mm deep 

Discussion: Deposit of grey ashy material, possibly floor make up underlying (3656) in Filbert. Appears to be the same as (3910) to the E and (3355) to the N though more ashy than the latter. For the most part it overlies a very mixed deposit the boundary between the two being slightly unclear as there are some similar elements in botrh. In the NE of the square however it clearly underlies a brown silt and could be followed as a single layer from this point. 

Recognition: Layer of grey ashy material revealed after removal of (3656) and appearing to correspond with similar material in the square to the E (Egbert). 

Definition: Top surface clearly defined by change from overlying unit. 

Execution: Trowel, leaf trowel. 

Condition: Dry. 

Consistency: firm 

Colour: 2.5 Y 6/1 grey 

Texture: silt loam 

Bedding: massive 

Inclusions: 5% charcoal flecks 

Post-depositional Features: none apparent though partly truncated by later feature 

Basal Boundary: clear/smooth/anthropogenic in NE of square but less clear elsewhere due to a mixed underlying deposit, part of which is similar to (3913), similar to base of (3910)

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
