Interpretive Categories: burial fill 

 

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

 

Discussion: This unit represents the fill placed over sk. 22620 and 22655 after this individual and additional bones were buried. It is very difficult to discern from the surrounding foundation deposit u. 22617, and is most likely related to the other burials in space 77. The fill contained several loose beads, and several pieces of jewelry including 2 bracelets, 2 anklets, and a copper ring. This unit contains some plaster from wall F. 7712 of B. 131 since that plaster ultimately slid into the fill upon interment. 

 

Consistency: loose 

Colour: black to dark grey 

Texture: sandy silt loam 

Bedding: massive, though contained rubble from wall F. 7712 which slid in during filling 

Inclusions: burnt clay, plaster, ash 

Post-depositional Features: exposure at surface since 2012 

Basal Boundary: diffuse-- extremely difficult to discern cut
