[a truncated cone or pyramid where the plane of truncation is parallel to the base, just to save you reaching for the OED - anyone know what it's called when the plane of truncation isn't....?]

Isn't it time for a mass-lobby of Time Team to have the word 'linear' banned unless followed by some sort of noun, they were doing it again on Sunday - oh, and 'high status' and 'further' are both starting to grate just a little, it's 'another pit', not a 'further pit'....
