Unit 13144

Category: Layer    dug in 2006

Area: North 

Interpretive Categories: burial fill 

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

Discussion: This unit represents the grave fill for SK13132. The upper levels of this grave fill are in unit 12996. Once the skeleton was realized as articulated, the fill unit was given to the specific skeleton 13132. This was done in order to keep the grave fills separate for the three articulated skeletons in the middle layers of multiple burial complex. Unit 13144 therefore consists of the soil immediatley surrounding the skeleton, especially the matrix to the side of and below the skeleton.

Finds Room Information:

All material from site passes through the finds room for washing and separating before it is passed onto the various lab teams. The finds room keeps a basic inventory of what is found. A finds material type list is given here. Further analytical detail maybe provided by the Lab Team data below.
