Unit 5137

Category: layer    dug in 1999

Area: South 

Interpretive Categories: Infill 

Data Category Information: Location: building; Deposition: homogeneous

Description: NOT EXCAVATED UNIT 

Discussion: This charcoally layer can be defined as a midden layer in between Building 23 which is belong level 10 and the level below level 11 where the F 551 is belong.
That can be even aprt of the one the phase in between level 11 and level 10. ( that has been suggested by SF). However I personally think that after abandonment of th level 11 structure have been used as a rubbish area. There is one way to porve these ideas excavate and remove the western wall of the biulding 23 and (?) this layer towards west.
