Discussion: This infill appears to be the same material as the bin is constructed of- ie patches of plaster and orange, bricky material. Only a thin skim of bin and fill remains, having been truncated in antiquity. It is likely that the interior material is demolished bin which has been knocked into the inside of the bin when it went out of use.
