Unit 10497

Category: layer    dug in 2004

 

Area: South

Interpretive Categories: grave fill 

 

Data Category Information: Location: cut; Description: burial; Deposition: homogeneous

 

Description: Fast track 

 

Discussion: The undulating nature of fill (10497) may suggest that it slumped as the skeleton 10498 composed below it. (10497) clearly adheres to the bones of skeleton 10498 and this must have happened after the skeleton decomposed as it is fully articulated.
There is the posssibility that this fill and skeleton 10498 belong with F1517 and there is no cut [10496] but this is not yet apparent.

Depth roughly estimated - FS 2009 

 

Recognition: recognised after the removal of fill (10488) and skeleton (10495) from feature 1513. Appears to have been slightly truncated by [10480] 

Definition: clearly defined by well defined contrast with surrounding layers and fills except to the north where fill (10497) closely resembles the clay marl deposit (11300) 

Execution: trowel, dental tools, puffy puffy, fine brush 

Condition: warm and dry 

Consistency: friable 

Colour: light olive green mixed with occasional light brown sandy silt component 

Texture: silty clay 

Bedding: thin and laminar 

Inclusions: non apparent 

Post-depositional Features: truncated by F1513 and may have slumpedafter decomposition of skeleton 10498 

Basal Boundary: irregular and clear. Seal skeleton 10498
