This bin was recognized below building infill which in this space (17) was removed last year. Its walls were sloping and generally the first impression was that it had a rounded shape, which however was not the case (see sketch). The bin was filled with a firm grey matter. On top of it, plaster had collapsed from the bin walls as well as the S wall probably. Beneath this plaster collapse the layer was the original fill of the feature as well as floor. However, it was hard to recognize, why a part of the underlying floor levels were also removed, that is, floors from the whole house.
This small bin feature was seemingly built on floor level u.30132 which was below u.20909 and u.30113. This makes it one of the later features built in this house, i.e. one of the features with shortest continuity. In the plaster collapse, a nice obsidian piece was found, but otherwise there is not much else telling of the bin's function specifically. It is however placed in a peculiar way very close to F7141 and the threshold area. It is also nice and symmetrical in its shape. Perhaps these two characteristics can be leading in the interpretation of this feature. |
