This feature consists of the following units. Skeleton 10829 is an articulated skeleton in a flexed position with its head in the south. Quite a number of burials goods were found on the skeleton, including a number of bone beads and three incised boars tusks.
An arbitrary cut (unit 10832) was assigned to the burial given that a real cut could not be established. A number of beads were found in the vicinity of the skeleton and collected in this unit.
The arbitrary fill layer to the arbitrary cut could not be differentiated from the surrounding matrix of unit 10812.
In terms of stratigraphical relationships the following relations can be noted. Feature 1710 is overlain by burial feature 1709, given that the skeleton of the latter, unit 10813, overlies that of f. 1710, unit 10829. In particular, the skull of 10829 lies on one of the tibia of 10813.
Feature 1710 may cut the large pit f. 1702, but given the arbitrary nature of cut 10832, we should be cautious with such arguments. |
