Bin under oven (F.785) in S-W corner of the building 3.
Lips up against the oven F. 785. NE bin arm goes from the wall of the oven, so to speak, as seen on the sketch. Not quite sure yet whether it was there to use while using the oven (ash recipient?) or after. Fill of the bin contained nice pieces of building material, that is, oven material, most of which yellowish with flat surfaces.
In the hole within the bin it is visible in the section that the rubbly layer is very thick, as already stated. It comes to mind that packing beneath the surface of bin: through all the oven phases superstructure material had been deposited there.
Also, John Swogger suggested there might had been an obsidian cache in the hole as was the case in the south area.
With unit 8525 it became clear how the ash collecting bin was constructed. An oven base was redeposited and set as foundation for the bin. Also, hole in the middle was used as dump for oven superstructure and odd chunks of oven base.
Bin was sitting on top of floor, maybe mouth of oven F. 785 was producing too much ash and surrounding white floor needednto be kept clean. |
