Definition 2001-09-04 okk installation [Input: L904okk1.j]
Description (summary) 2001-09-04 okk reddish layer underneath f147, which appeared at first to be a structure of some type. In the east section of A13, as well as in the cut of pit a11, we saw a number of courses of reddish bricks, from 5-8 courses. At first we thought that it might be a wall, or possibly the structure of a burial. After seeing the brick courses in the section we levelled carefully to find the top of this structure, and although there was a clear difference in texture and hardness from the contiguous f162, it did not appear to be a wall from the top. There were no clear brick or mortar lines. Once we had excavated from the level of f174 northwards, we found that this floor continued beneath f159. The possibilities then for this feature are that it was some type of structure that was dug in A13, and we only saw the remainder of a few bricks, or that it might have been the eastern part of a grave. We actually found part of a skull within 20-30 cm below in f161 which could lend credence to this hypothesis. [Input: L904okk1.j]
