Unit 6524

Category: layer    dug in 2000

Area: Trench I 

Interpretive Categories: Space infill 

Data Category Information: Location: building; Deposition: homogeneous

Dimensions: 1.5m EW x 0.4m NS x 0.12m deep 

Discussion: This has been defined as part of room fill of space192. It was actually quite a mýxed deposit and at one part a yellow plastery-mortarish composition came out, but it was not defined with any feature, so I think it was actually just part of the room collapse. Besides this, there wasn't anything different of the fill. 

Recognition: The layer has been recognised south of cut 6521 as room fill in between walls. It has been defined by colour from the western section of cut 6521 

Definition: Ditto A 

Execution: Trowel and shovel 

Condition: Dry 

Consistency: Moderately firm 

Colour: The main fill - 10YR 5/1 grey, Orange, mortarish stuff seen on section - 2.5YR 7/4 pale yellow, Ashy deposit seen on section - 2.5YR 5/2 greyish brown 

Texture: Maýn fill - silty clay loam, orange mortarish stuff - clay, ashy deposit - silty loam 

Bedding: Massýve, except for one part with the orange ashy stuff and I believe that was just part of collapse 

Inclusions: Main fill - charcoal, phytolith, some bone and pottery, some bits of plaster. Orange mortar - very small bits of phytolith. Ashy deposit - charcoal, phytolith and plaster in very small bits and only containing 5% of fill 

Post-depositional Features: Animal activity and roots 

Basal Boundary: Sharp
