VSF 2010 Report - Nabo

Group 9502
Group (9502) contains deposits belonging to the northern most of the two adjacent rooms
south of structure (10662), close to the western limits of the excavation area. This room
was 2.5 x 2.5 m in size (internally), with a doorway in the south-west corner connecting it
to corridor (10590) (see below). It was mostly excavated in 2009 down to a floor deposit,
unit [9619] which was clearly running under the southern wall that separates it from room
(8562) (see below). This led to the conclusion that the rooms were parts of a larger
structure, which was divided at some point to create two separate rooms (Gísladóttir in
Milek 2010, 70-71).
In 2010, only two deposits were excavated in room (9502), a stone platform, unit
[10634] possibly the foundations for an internal structure, sitting up against the northern
wall, and under that a small deposit of turf collapse, unit [10640]. At this stage it has not
been established if the platform belongs to the latest phase of the structure or to the phase
before the wall separating rooms (9502) and (8562) was constructed.
