Unit 20093

Category: Layer    dug in 2014

 

Area: South 

 

Interpretive Categories: Plaster Surface on Platform 

 

Data Category Information: Location: feature; Description: pedestal/podium/plinth; Material: white clay; Deposition: multiple; Basal Spit: unpainted

 

Discussion: Unit is a plaster surface event on platform F. 3442 cut by burial F. 7400 (cut U. 20041). The plaster is eroded on the W. side due to the Mellaart truncation. The floor here was underneath the plaster floor of the platform to the E. (F3441) which lapped down to the W. onto U.20093 (this plaster is U. 18989). U. 20093 appears to be sitting on top of a makeup layer which when removed may reveal more burial cuts in F. 3442. The unit is thin so about 2 layers of thin plaster were removed to get down to the next distinguishable make up layer.
