Interpretive Categories: skeleton 

Data Category Information: none

Discussion: Skeleton (5617) of F.1106 with surrounding fill (5616) and notional cut (5618) was that of a primary burial of a roughly 3 year old child, that was too young for a sex determination. CHK PHOTOS FOR DIRECTION. It was found in a tightly crouched position with the forehead brought down to touch the drawn up knees, the elbows were bent and the right hand lay under the head. Whilst most of this skeleton was excavated, it was close up to the north section LOE where it’s lower torso extended into the section such that only half of it’s sacrum was excavated (SF 19/04/11)
