Unit 1430
Category: layer dug in 1996
Area: North
Interpretive Categories: pit fill
Data Category Information: Location: cut; Description: pit; Deposition: homogeneous
Discussion: Pit fill-maybe two pits intercutting, but this is only suggested by the shape, and cut plan (see unit 1435). One of a group of pits cuts into the sub-floor packing of the platform F32- although not completely clear, seems as if the floors sealed all this pit- to be safe, I have made just the upper set of floors seal them in the matrix.
