Locus: F6M90:026 Supervisor: T. Wehtje
Locus type: Earth
Designation: Debris E of Wall 25 & W of Wall 5
Start date: 03 Aug, 1989
End date: 03 Aug, 1989
Rationale
Reason: Isolated by walls
Top separation: Arbitrary / Bottom separation: Very Clear

Interpretation:
Function: Occupational debris layer
Stratigraphy remarks: MB reading dates not only itself but underlying cobble Surf 29 as well as Wall 25; so there is as yet still no architecture that can be said to have originated during LB; it is unclear just how this locus & Wall 5 & the foundation of Wall 5 which may be Wall 21 continuing from the other side, relate
Locus Date: Middle Bronze 2
