Interpretive Categories: burial lid
Data Category Information: none
Dimensions: 1.05 m N-S, 0.50 WE
Discussion: Unit was excavated in two sections, 2 lengthwise halves of the burial unit, so as to preserve a cross section (profile) of the burial . This profile was photographed before the 2nd half was excavated.
When we dug the other half, we noticed that the floor on the east side was very thin (~1cm), and slopes towards the center of the burial.
We stopped this unit when we encountered midden like infill.
