It was divided into a >6mm, >3mm, and >1mm fraction. Of the >6mm and >3mm fraction 100% were sorted, the >1mm fraction was subsampled and only 25% were sorted. Variety of arte- and geofacts was low. In the >6mm fraction bone, pottery/terracotta, and slags were found and entirely recovered. In the >3mm fraction charcoal hammerscale were recovered. The presence of pottery/terracotta was noted, but as fragments were non-diagnostic they were not recovered. In the >1mm fraction charcoal and hammerscale were recovered.
