Unit 30920

Category: Layer    dug in 2013

Area: South 

Interpretive Categories: burial fill 

Data Category Information: Location: cut; Description: burial

Discussion: The unit is localized in the north-west side of the big cut u.19891. This layer is characterized by a light brown colour and by a large concentration of bones not connected among them. In the north west part there are two skulls and a lot of bones in bad condition in terms of preservation; in the central part there are long bones not connected. For the characteristics of this layer it seems probably that it is an accumulation maybe to lay down a primary burial. The unit was excavated by leaf trowel and by the human remains teams's kit.
