Grave cut: Edges hard to define, bottom easier.
Skeleton: Sub-adult lying on its right side with legs tightly flexed towards the chest. Arms bent, hands on the chest, skull missing. Mandible with three stone beads (x-find of 20203) present, almost in situ. Well preserved.
Grave infill: Reused infill from F3661, probably and hard to tell from F3661 infill U20405. See F3661 sheet for further discussion.
Primary burial, but there has been a certain amount of disturbane as the cranium is missing. Possibly just because of the position close to the modern ground surface.
Beads in line and close to the neck suggest that the child was buried wearing a necklace.
