Title: | Pyre | |
Category: | Pyre | |
Description: | Pyre in north central room of house, measuring 0.50m east-west by 0.35m north-south. Pottery, bone, and burnt material in pit dug into layer IIb (crushed bedrock floor: lot Ω 464, 4th c.) and covered by layer Ia (lot Ω 462, second half of 4th c., possibly into 3rd c., containing more fragments of pyre pottery probably from this pyre). The stratigraphy around the pyre cannot be physically connected to the architectural history of the house, but the date of the pyre would be consistent with a dedication at the time of the rebuilding or during the subsequent reoccupation. There were extensive traces of burning, and teh pottery has been burnt. | |
Notes: | No lot. See pd #1998 for location. | |
