Unit 6288
Category: layer dug in 2000
Area: North
Data Category Information: none
Dimensions: 105 cm N-S 50 cm E-W
Description: infill around the burial
Discussion: 6288 does not have a very distinct change compared to the unit above which is the upper layer. This unit is easy to excavate. Separation between these two units (6279 abd 6288) is arbitrary, determined by the proximity to the skeleton (6288 in the infill closest to the burial). The infill of unit 6288 had humerus fragments and animal bones in it.
