Category: layer    dug in 2004

Area: TP

Data Category Information: In Situ: in situ; Location: feature; Description: oven; Material: pise-like; Deposition: heterogeneous

Dimensions: 1.34 x 1.04 x 0,29 

Discussion: It is a construction of a kiln situated in N part of an extension. It was placed in a pit which cut was registered as unit 10952 and infill as 10915. The bottom of the construction (10914) was placed on the base of the cut (10952). Underneath the line of stones (oriented E-W) was found.
Within this unit, both fragments of walls and of the bottom of the kiln were found. Not the whole base of the cut of the pit was covered with the kiln construction.
The base of the kiln differed in thickness - in N part it was thicker and therefore the lowest of the unit differs as wall.
These two part are partly divided by a line of stones mentioned above.
