Interpretive Categories: arbitrarily determined layer above burial
Data Category Information: none
Dimensions: NS 1m - EW 0.75m - 0.3m
Discussion: Unit 15378 began with the intention of uncovering grave F.3342. Soon after digging had begun, wall F.3344 was discovered west of the grave. Grave 3342 had obviously been cut into wall F.3344. We decided to limit U.15378 to the area east of wall F.3344 and north of the southern edge of gave F.3342. Everything south of F.3342 would be unit 15393.
