GU-4419

Hazel, wild cherry and Willow sp. charcoal from Context 1709, which represents a basal humic sediment within the built platform to a rectangular structure. It underlies context 1708 and together they form the lowest contexts within the accumulated material forming a platform. The charcoal inclusions are interpreted as being derived from site use prior to the construction of this platform.
