Description

Sediment sample 18.22 was collected on the 19.7.2022 and had an original volume of 21 litres. It derives from trench/area T90, locus 34. The sample was floated on the 20.7.2022. The light fraction showed a high abundance of charred plant remains, further details on its content can only be assessed in the future. The heavy fraction was sorted on the 27.7.2022. 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 Charcoal, pottery/terracotta/clay-based debris and slags were found and entirely recovered. In the >3mm fraction charcoal and hammerscale were recovered. The presence of pottery/terracotta/clay-based debris was noted, but as fragments were non-diagnostic they were not recovered. Furthermore a legume and a possible grape stalk were recovered. In the >1mm fraction charcoal and hammerscale were recovered. The presence of pottery/terracotta/clay-based debris was noted, but as fragments were non-diagnostic they were not recovered.
