Unit description: Very small unit consisting entirely of scrap, mostly sheep-size. No pieces larger than 3 cm. surfaces seem slightly degraded. About 20% burning. Seems quite similar to fill above floors, looks washed in. 4 mm flotation sorted 100% and recorded completely. Sample 2 is a small flotation sample, consisting mostly of small pieces of sheep-size scrap. There are some burnt pieces of large mammal scapula. One fish bone, one microfauna femur. Some burning, both high and low temperature, some digestion. Well preserved, but some of the smaller pieces look a little rolled. Fairly even body part distribution (long bones, ribs, vertebrae, cranial). Last number = 43Figurine Records: No GroundStone Records: No Heavy Residue Records: No Microfaunal Records: No
