Unit 10831

Category: layer    dug in 2004

 

Area: South 

 

Interpretive Categories: arbitrary layer,fill 

 

Data Category Information: Location: cut; Description: burial; Deposition: homogeneous

 

Description: arbitrary fill unit of burial 1709 FAST TRACK 

 

Discussion: arbitrary fill of arbitrary cut 10830. Fill derives from area in the vicinity of skeleton 10813 and the surrounding elements of skeleton 10814. The matrix was otherwise similar to that of the surrounding unit 10812.

Below the skeleton 10813 some reddish brown discolorations with white specks were encountered, which could be the residues of organic materials. Sample 1 was taken below cluster 10835 (flints and antler point) and sample 2 due north of the spine. Later it was realised that these discolorations occur mainly below the weaker tissues of the skeleton (such as ribs and vertebrae) and may represent leaching and disintigration of these bones rather than something else.

Calculated from dims.

Finds Room Information:

All material from site passes through the finds room for washing and separating before it is passed onto the various lab teams. The finds room keeps a basic inventory of what is found. A finds material type list is given here. Further analytical detail maybe provided by the Lab Team data below.

X Finds Material: nothing recorded  

Finds Material Stored: nothing recorded
