Unit 4455

Category: cut    dug in 1999

Area: South 

Interpretive Categories: grave cut 

Data Category Information: Description: burial

Discussion: The cut was very shallow. Especially the eastern part of it has sharp rise but at the western side a gradual rise is noticeable. The bottom of the cut is slightly linear and concave. The edges of it are rounded but partly/ slightly sharp in certain areas. The shallowness of the cut shows that the greatest care wasn't taken for the burial especially when combined with the burial's position that can be more obvious.
