Unit 11768

Category: Layer    dug in 2005

Area: TP 

Interpretive Categories: burial infill 

Data Category Information: Location: cut; Description: burial; Deposition: homogeneous; Basal Spit: basal deposit

Dimensions: 0.30 x 0.60 x 0,13 

Discussion: This is an infill of a burial located in the southern part of an extension. The skeleton in this burial was excavated as unit 11720.
The skeleton was disturbed and cut by cuts from both northern and southern sides (north - unit 11741, south - cut 11766). From the eastern side the burial was cut by a large pit (infill - 11719), while head - pointing west - was placed on a wall - unit 11764.
The infill of the buial was not easily distinguishable and was only defined when the bones had been exposed.
The heighest ranged from 1017.12 (in west) to 1017.00 (in east), so did the lowest - from 1016.99 (in west) to 1016.96 (in east). Therefore the heights differed from 0.13 to 0.04 m.
