Unit 40026

Category: Layer    dug in 2018

Area: East 

Interpretive Categories: Empty burial infill 

Data Category Information: Location: cut; Description: burial

Discussion: Some human bones came from the infill but there isn't any proper burial inside of it. However based on the size of the bones from upper and lower limb it may be possible to distinguish two individuals: neonate and juvenile. The infill of the possible burial was disturbed by animals. This might be the reason why there isn't any complete skeleton in infill.
