Description

  • Remaining 0877 in pit 0897

Linked Contexts

  • Context: CH06SR_877
    • Very black, fine ashy (almost like soot) layer, that now appears to fill a pit. The extent was difficult to determine at first because there are several other contexts appearing at the same time and there was much mixing (wind did not help). Several hearth bottoms and slag were recovered. Context at definition was approximately 1.4 M (NW-SE) X 1 M (NE-SW) but after removing contexts 0884 and 0876 the extent increased to approximately 2.1 M (NW-SE) X 1.6 M (NE-SW) and was approximately 18-22 cm in depth, though less so as it extended to SE.
  • Context: CH06SR_897
    • Large cut filled by contexts 0876 and 0877 (whuch are likely related to metalworking activities) with dimensions that are approximately 2.1 M (NE-SW) X 1.65 M (NW-SE) and 20-25 cm in depth. The sides are gently sloping and irregular and the bottom is uneven. - If this is accurately reflected by drawing in ATR NB p. 92, it has rather the form of two pits, one subrectangular and one circular, joined together; notebook puts circular pit in center of long side of rectangle, but photo suggests more at one corner. (See sketch on back).
