Context
Bulk sediment sample from Feature 7, an intramural pit in Structure 1. Excavated into the floor of the structure; encountered at 54 cm bd. Had been bisected by a backhoe trench, making it dificult to determine whether it was one large pit or 2 smaller ones. Treated as a single feature, 154 x 60 cm in dia., max thickness of 47 cm. Fill was dark grayish-brown silty snad similar to the structure although some FCR was present. No charcoal in the fill, but walls had signs of oxidation. Total of 105 faunal frags. recovered, including 22 medium artiodactyl long bones. Interpreted as being exposed to high heat during use; later used as an intentional dump. Assigned to Component 2.
