| Interpretive Categories: Natural infill,Trample |
| |
| Data Category Information: Location: building; Deposition: heterogeneous; Basal Spit: basal deposit |
| |
| Dimensions: 0.90m n-s, 1.20m e-s ~up to 0.15m deep |
| |
| Discussion: Homogenous layer of mid brown material with occasional phytolith traces throughout. Very distinct from infill material above-which was full of inclusions and demolition material-seems to represent a phase between the final use of the space and the infilling-although I have no idea what the unit itself would actually be-trample?? natural infill? |
| |
| Recognition: Didn't recognise this at first even though very distinct from overlying infill material. |
| Definition: Reasonably clear, seems to be lying within lower part of room |

| Finds Room Information: |
| All material from site passes through the finds room for washing and separating before it is passed onto the various lab teams. The finds room keeps a basic inventory of what is found. A finds material type list is given here. Further analytical detail maybe provided by the Lab Team data below. |
| X Finds Material: nothing recorded |
