Description
- CH05SR0648
- Compact orangish soil with inclusions in NE part of room 30, under area of hearth
- Light grey compact soil with the inclusions of ceramic, tile, nail frag-s; soil is pale orange in patches, ashy, seems to preserve traces of burning; reaches depth of up to 30cm in E corner of the room, extends to NW, but boundary with grayer, rockier soil to NW not identified; unlike hearth, the outline of this soil is ellipsoidal, and its center is located somewhat to the SE of the center of the circular hearth above
- Possible overexcavation along the SE side of the bedrock cut -- some lower material may have been removed at the same time; layer may also be the same (in part) as the soil that makes up the floor surface 603; note that photo documentation indicated on paper context sheet, but no documentation could be found
Interpretation
-
- Burned soil under the hearth.
-
- AS
-
- If this soil is related to the hearth, is it evidence for the long-term use of the area for that purpose or for the intensity/heat of the fires lit there?
