Unit 17910
Category: Layer dug in 2008
Area: North
Interpretive Categories: occupation
Data Category Information: Location: building; Description: general; Material: occupation; Deposition: multiple
Discussion: occupation debris accumulated to north of space 334, contained by walls to either side.
Whilst sense was that this material accrued as small desposits in thin laminates they were diffuse and hard to see or follow, lenses would be apparent but disappear, therefore indicative of continuous turbation
Rich in debris, typical of 'small room' occupation accumulation, represents earlist occupation phase. whilst basin F.4027 constructed over this horzon, it is likely that some of this material is associated with the use of the basin and therefore on matrix it has been reassigned as later than basin
Consistency: soft and friable
Colour: mid brown grey
Texture: soft ashy silt
Bedding: diffuse, whilst no clear horizons to follow the deposits were laid as discreet laminates,
Inclusions: charcoal, bone, obsidian, relativel rich as compared to surround
Post-depositional Features: animal runs
Basal Boundary: diffuse, merged with underlying layer
