Unit description: Unit represented entirely by flotation sample 1 (>4mm 100% sorted and recorded). It is dominated by small bits of sheep-sized scrap (long bones, ribs, vertebrae, skull pieces and other indeterminates). The only diagnostic is a sheep-sized sesamoid. Fragments are generaly very small - mainly less than 1cm, but a few are c3cms. The smaller pieces are rather battered as if from a floor deposit where they may have been trampled/eroded, but some of the slightly larger fragments are in fair condition. A few are burnt (low temperatures). Could these be discarded on a floor, with some pieces having been trampled in/eroded for longer than others?
