Burial of baby 5357 - buried on top of a spread of ochre + organic material. Cut is very bell shaped + baby lies at southern end under the overhang. The head is at the eastern end + the face faces north. The body is lying flexed with its feet together. The burial was in very bad condition with the hands + feet almost totally disintegrated. The traces left of the left foot seem to show the original shape of the actual foot. The underlying spread roughly follows the line of the body suggesting that it may have been wrapped up in some kind of shroud. The burial cut comes down onto a plaster layer which runs under the sides of the cut so may be an underlying floor.
