Notes: | As we go deeper in 812, larger pieces of white mortar/plaster are unearthed. Large pieces of bone. LN: AMS, 21/6/15 - 812 could possibly be a continuation of 829 - a thin layer of levelling dirt overlying preexisting rubble of 814 and 820. It was slightly higher than 829, but only a few centimeters. It may thus represent a deposit between level surfaces 792 and 829. 24/06/2015 Larkin Kennedy, Rossana Valente Animal bones: murex, oyster, sheep/goat (0.17 kg), all thrown. | |
