Unit 30018
Category: Layer dug in 2015
Area: North
Interpretive Categories: Burial infill to the E side of platform F.638
Data Category Information: Location: cut; Description: burial; Deposition: heterogeneous
Discussion: Burial infill towards SE corner of burial pit within E platform of building. This infill probably belongs to that of the baby skeleton found within a basket in 2012. This unit was excavated in order to find the edge of the platform core in its E side.
As the rest of the burial fill already excavated, this layer was rich in inclusions, mostly microcharcoal, with an increasing concentration of re-used white plaster and alluvial clay aggregates towards the top.
