F. 3950 is a large pit-- likely once two separate pits now indistinguishable from each other in terms of the fill. Left unexcavated at end of 2012 season. Cut into u. 20267 & 20221.
2013: The two pits are now evidently separated as two events. F. 3950 now refers to the northern pit, which truncates f. 3985, the southern and earlier pit. It was an extremely shallow pit, possibly because of its relationship to f. 3985, a larger and deeper style. It is cut into u. 20267, a deposit of Neolithic building material, and is extremely round in plan. It has a flat bottom, and is characteristic of the late pits found elsewhere at the site (e.g. TPC trenches 1 and 2, and the Greek excavations in the south shelter). As is usual with these sorts of pits, very little material culture was found inside. |
