Unit 11738

Category: Layer    dug in 2006

Area: TP 

Interpretive Categories: mudbrick rubble 

Data Category Information: none

Dimensions: 1.54 x 1.90 x 0.11 

Discussion: This is an arbitrary layer left unexcavated in the previous season. It is placed in the northern part of the trench, between other units of more certain interpretation.
This rubble layer, of wavy irregular shape and surface, was a mixture of fallen pale yellow, oranguish and whitish bricks and very heterogenous infill: greyish silty sand and sand as well as brownish silty clay with many small yellow lenses. Above this unit a large pit of unspecified function was recorded (11719 infill, 10923 cut).
The relations of the described layer with other units are very unclear. Being left from previous season and badly truncated by later cuts (11766, 11741, 10938), the unit must be treated with caution.

This feature was transferred to Space 598 in 2015.

Finds Room Information:

All material from site passes through the finds room for washing and separating before it is passed onto the various lab teams. The finds room keeps a basic inventory of what is found. A finds material type list is given here. Further analytical detail maybe provided by the Lab Team data below.
