Unit 5148

Category: layer    dug in 1999

Interpretive Categories: Oven base extension 

Data Category Information: Location: feature; Description: oven; Material: baked; Deposition: single

Dimensions: 0.2m e-w x 0.3m n-s x 0.03m thick 

Discussion: Additional oven floor: presumably associated with the later phase when more arm superstructure was added. 5148/ 9 bring the floor out westward to match what happens with the arm. Don't know what purpose it would have served at all, and it doesn't appear especially fired or anything either. Very odd.
