Within the fill 10051 of space 238 a cluster of bone was found. This included a cattle skull 10057 which was aligned facing north with one horncore base against the western external wall of building 45. This skull consisted of the posterior frontal bone and left horncore base and was set into a matrix of greenish grey clay which is the supporting structural element of a dismantled bucrania. The lack of horn cores suggest that these were removed before the bucrannia was abandoned in space 238. Both the anterior and posterior faces of the matrix were flat.
Next to the bucrannia a male wild boar skull was dumoed lying upside down and facing east practically touching the bucrania. |
