C14 Radiocarbon Dating - Sample - SUERC-10625

Sample TWT02 195b Context 195 Clay loamy fill of large pit F193, over natural subsoil and below upper clay fill 194 of pit F193 and cobbles 217. One of two dates requested for archaeobotanical interest. Probably agricultural/domestic waste from adjacent surface incorporated within pit while it was open: grain is in good condition, so this is likely to have accurred soon after death.
