Unit 4451 

Category: layer    dug in 1999
 
Area: South

Interpretive Categories: crawlhole blocking,Fill of crawl hole 
 
Data Category Information: Location: building; Deposition: homogeneous
 
Dimensions: 0.5m n-s x 0.33m e-w x 0.3m deep 
 
Discussion: Same as 4321, 4439, 4440, 4441- but separated to allow collection of finds from fill of crawl hole 490. 
 
Recognition: Recognised because layer 4441 continued eastward into wall 484 when it was being excavated. Investigated showed edges to this fill on western side of wall. Then the virtually whole profile of this crawl hole 490 was seen and recognised for what it was on southern niche of wall 484. Layer same as 4321, 4439, 4440, 4441. 
Definition: In crawl hole between spaces 163 and 173 of Building 6 
Execution: As for 4439 
Condition: As for 4439 
Consistency: As for 4439 
Colour: As for 4439 
Texture: As for 4439 
Bedding: As for 4439 
Inclusions: As for 4439 
Post-depositional Features: Root disturbance on eastern side, following lines of plaster and loosening them. 
Basal Boundary: Comes off, a deposit of phytolith/ coprolite similar to 4444. Also in floors it comes off the hard brick base which is the truncated remains of wall 484.
