Unit 5178

Category: Cut    dug in 1999

Area: South 

Interpretive Categories: Burial cut 

Data Category Information: Description: burial

Dimensions: 44cm n-s by ~44cm e-w 

Discussion: Cut for skeleton 5177 feature 564. Unfinished as basket in process of conservation. Cut appears to be quite large in relation to the basket which was placed in it and lay only in the southern half of the cut. It is possible that there may be another burial in the northern half!

Due to removal of 5020 in one episode the skeleton is placed in a matrix below 5020. In fact it may have been cut in any one of the series of re-flooring phases-too many to remove individually.
