Discussion: Based on location in north part of building in platform, as well as some human remains found in the pit, the interpretation that it is a burial retrieval cut seems likely.

Cut not fully excavated in 2015 as excavation was halted on 1 Aug when cranium and large tibia were exposed. 

Shape: Kidney shaped e-w 

Sides: e side slight undercut, w side irregular, n and s straight 

Base Break: diffuse base 

Base: diffuse, hard to define as infill and make up seems continuous
