Unit 21773

Category: Cut    dug in 2015

Area: South 

Interpretive Categories: burial cut 

Data Category Information: Description: burial

Discussion: This unit is a burial cut belonging to grave F.7409 found on the central platform of B.80 (F.3440). Unit 21773 was found underlaying the white plaster layer U.21765 primarily covering whole surface of the platform. The extent of this cut and its shape in plan started to be clear since we removed the thick (~3/4 cm) layer of white plaster overlapping massive and brown burial fill (U.21772).
It is worth to note that this unit consists of a very tiny grave cut comparing to the size of a body (U.21778). The individual seems to be clearly pushed in to the grave pit in tightly flexed position.
In the same way was threated body slightly younger individual buried to the north, in central part of the main platform.
