Unit 14244

Category: Layer    dug in 2007

Area: Trench 5 

Interpretive Categories: fill oF grave 

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

Discussion: This layer was brick material, dumped on top of the surviving grave fill. It extended over both the brick wall and the fill itself, and was probably part of the general layer 14213 surrounding this area. Following excavation, more orange-mudbrick inclusions were found in the fill of the grave, and for that reason this unit belongs with the grave feature, F. 2416
