Discussion: removal of packing underlying floor (6132). Packing comprises solid layer of mottled, mixedcons. material which directly overlies clean white floor of earlier phase of platform. Packing is 5cm thick. Small frgs. of red painted plaster included in packing. Peels of onto thin skim of occup. debris lying on top of white floor. Samples of 6135 are taken from the interface of packing and occup. debris. |

ArchaeoBots Sample Recorded: Yes Count of records:: 2 | | Ceramic Records: No | Clay Object Records: Yes Count of records:: 2 | Chipped Stone Records: Yes Count of records:: 6 | | Conservation Recorded: No | Faunal Records: Yes Count of records:: 46 Unit description: Sample 6 >4 mm flotation 100% sorted, recorded completely; represents layer immediately on surface of platform. Tiny unit consisting of tiny pieces of sheep-size animals, plus one fish bone. Some burning, variable weathering; much looks slightly rolled and trampled. Looks like clean floor. Last number = 6 LY 2001 Flotation sample #1 was completely recorded and consisted of small fragments of bone; c.10% had been charred and there was a high proportion of digested bone. A number of burnt bones came from a large mammal skull but the only fragments identifiable to species belonged to caprines. One fragment of fish jaw was also present in the sample Last number = 38 Note acw 2001: double number occurred. From 2001 data F1-F6 renumbered F39-F44 Last number = 45 | Figurine Records: Yes Count of records:: 2 | | GroundStone Records: No | Heavy Residue Records: Yes Count of records:: 2 | Microfaunal Records: No Sorry not all of this data is available online at present, please contact us if you are particularly interested microfauna records | Phytolith Sample: No Sorry not all of this data is available online at present, please contact us if you are particularly interested phytolith samples |
