Unit 14104
Category: Skeleton dug in 2006
Area: North
Data Category Information: none
Discussion: A child's skeleton.
This burial was also dug from the building above which was eroded away. No information of where in the house this burial was located. Might be under the NE platform.
The legs were disturbed by f. 2248 but the other elements of the body might have been disturbed by a late (Byzantine?) burial which was above.
The bones are in bad condition due to being near the surface.
