Unit 3026

Category: layer    dug in 1998

 

Area: North 

 

Interpretive Categories: dump,infilling 

 

Data Category Information: Location: between walls; Deposition: heterogeneous

 

Dimensions: 1.45m N-S / 0.49 m W-E / 0.20 to 0.35 m thick 

 

Discussion: Mixed layer in space 69 between buildings. Quite mixed, probably a deliberate dump to infill the space which was derived from a number of sources. Largely composed of building debris presumably from a nearby building which was being demolished. The way the layer lips up at both sides shows that it built up in-situ against the two walls. 

 

Recognition: firmer and more blocky than other layers 

Definition: defined by walls / already excavated areas 

Execution: mattock 

Condition: normal 

Consistency: moderate 

Colour: quite mixed range of greyish brown / orange brown / brownish grey 

Texture: variable - clayey silt with ash, some very clayey patches 

Bedding: compound layered 

Inclusions: frequent small / medium sized pieces of mud-brick, mortar, ashy lenses
