Unit 30055
Category: Layer dug in 2016
Area: North
Interpretive Categories: plaster floor
Data Category Information: Location: building; Description: raised area (platform); Material: mix (dark grey&white); Deposition: composite (floors/bedding/plaster/packing/occupation); Basal Spit: unpainted
Description: overlies 30064 (Hearth F7957) and eastern edge of 30057 where it also overlay 30074. At SE 30055 overlay oven F.7953.
Discussion: eroded fragment of a plaster surface that continued up the north face of wall F7705. cleaning of the rim of oven F7953 showed it continuing westwards around this feature to meet plaster 30072 a wall plaster that equates to 22462 (a number assigned in 2015 to a surface) a deposit under-dug in 201 Season. This connection agrees with the continuance of 30055 over the eastern edge of F7951 (deposit 30057) . These stratigraphic and physical relationships confirm the interpretation of 30055 as a floor surfce. At the top of te stratigraphic sequence this surface relates to the reuse of hearth F7957 oven F7953 pot placement F7955 the modified phase of platform F7954.
30055 seals earlier structure of F7957 and F7979.
