Discussion
This is a quite large pit located next to western wall (F. 4090) of space 370 (B.96). It has been filled with a massive amount of plaster which probably fell down from the western wall. Within the pit cluster of animal bones (u.19702) has been recorded. At the bottom of the pit fragments of red ochre has been registered and removed for specialist analyses. It is possible that this feature is a post retrieval pit. Its position directly next to the central part of western wall of the building can indicate this kind of function of the feature. Lack of plaster on the wall just above the pit suggest that it could be some sort of constructional element assembled to the wall. The cut (u.19704) of the pit was ovoid and regular with a sharp edge, vertical sides and a flat base. |
