Feature comprises of 3 burials (at least for 30.07.05) and their fill. The skeletons are belonging to babies (0-6 months) and elongated through the wall. In the excavation, it has been found that the floor layer was heavily eroded (feature 2036), for that reason there's no clear cut for the fill' assuming that the burials were dug under the floors. On the other hand, there is another wall built in the earlier periods, which bounds the feature in the south. Another cut is made to the same wall (U: 11966).
In the SE corner, there seems to be another baby burial which makes the skeleton numbers '4'.
The units 11957 and 11971 are very close to each other and given an impression of same date of burial.
By 02.08.05, after taking out 4 baby skeletons, another skeleton appeared in the fill.
The feature is very close to the other baby burials (U:11973, U:11975). On the other hand, there's no clear chronological order among them.
The feature is higher than all other features overall. |
