Circular cut through floor make up layer of building 53 (12581). Well-defined shallow bowl-shaped cut in which obsidian, bone, and stone were found. The cut came down onto a reddish-brown 'mottled' deposit. The pit was possibly used as a cache that was abandoned, leaving only the few finds behind. There are two other similarly-sized pits in the floor to the NW (F1537 & F1539) that also had residual finds in them such as bead blanks and obsidian.
Note: excavation of make-up layer (14315) ahowed that the reddish brown mottled deposit was not the base of the pit, but it's basal layer. The two layers are indistinguishable. Removal of (14315) however showed a depression and it was clear that the fill in it belonged to the pit. No change in function is thought. DHB 13/08/06. |
