!Basket!
Described as such because of the high number of carbonized branches in it. It is possible that it was a basket but the doubt comes from the fact that there were no branches on the bottom, on the floor.
It was placed directly on floor 2041, in the southeastern corner. The floor is lower in that area, exactly to fit 2040 "basket" in it.
The cluster in 11965 contained a number of stones, 2 obsidian blades, and a large number of sheep long bones plus antlers, some of which worked.
Therefore I see 2040 as a possible basket, but definitely a storage area, maybe for bones which were about to be worked into bone tools. This is argued also by the fact that the long bones are very suitable for that purpose and also by the presence of a big stone on floor 2091, which presents signs of working. |
