Discussion: Irregular cut defined by limits of soft fill 13731, also associated with 13741 and 13739.
Large but not very deep irregular cut heavily disturbed by later animal burrows. Appears to be a feature that is related to reopening or perhaps robbing graves as the cut is deeper in two areas (separately numberd) directly above the graves. However, the disturbance of the underlying grave may also be accidental. Large concentration of fragmented and disturbed human bone associated with this disturbance (13739). To its south the E end of skeleton 13744 was disturbed (13741).
