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

 

Discussion: At the beginning of excavation of this unit we thought that southern part of trench had another pit infill, also recognized by its circural shape and the consistency of soil which was loose. By exposing the circular edges of the pit and following the different consistency, about 10 cm down it was clear that it's a burial pit. We also defined brick markers and these were partially preserved in their first and second course. The shape of grave was similar in plan to other graves which we found in Sp. 528.
