Unit 30913

Category: Layer    dug in 2013

Area: South 

Interpretive Categories: fill around disarticulate human remains 

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

Discussion: This unit is localized in the south-east side of the cut u.19891. This layer is characterized by a light brown colour and by a large concentration of bones, not connected among them. We found also a little ring made of shell. This layer is above all made of bones and this occurrency let us and the human remains team infer that this layer probably is an accumulation of bones to make space for the infant burial (skeleton 19887). This unit was excavated by leaf trowel and by the human remains's team.
