Unit description: A small unit, with little burning. Mostly quite fresh in appearance. All sheep-sized, with one large vertebral body exception. Mixed weathering, no gnawing/digestion, generally predepositional fragmentation. Sample 2 >4mm flotation 100% sorted, recorded completely. Moderate amount of fragments of varying sizes. Mostly sheep-size but goodly amount of large mammal. A little burning and digestion. Assortment of body parts, no coherence. Weathering variable. Looks like fill of mixed origins, not too different from 3071. Last number = F54Figurine Records: No Ground Stone Records: Yes
