Discussion: Excavation of room-fill in 1x1m square. After removal of 1102 in first square we now take first deposits from next square to SE.

Surfaces lightly weathered; rather matte appearance. Largest piece of bone has lots of fresh Sample 3 >4mm flotation 100% sorted, recorded fully. Medium-size sample with more sheep-size than large mammal, 1 equid carpal.
