Unit description: Preform of bone ring: manufacture! HF- Medium size unit made up of mainly sheep size fragments but with a decent amount of cattle size fragments represented. Overall the unit is fairly heavily processed but did contain some larger elements with proximal or distal epiphyses. Cattle size fragments include a cattle humerus, phalanx, and several horse long bones and teeth. There was also a pig radius/ulna, with a articulating (yet fragmented) humerus which was sub-bagged for possible C14 dating. Surface condition was somewhat variable. There was a small amount of burning and gnawing noted. Flot #94 (>4 mm, 100%) [JW]: Similarly-small amounts of burning and gnawing as the dry sieved portion along with some digested small sheep bones (phalanges, unfused metapodial ends). Dominated by sheep-sized remains with some cow- and equid-sized carpal and tarsal bones. 212 grams of unidentifiable flot scrap.Figurine Records: No GroundStone Records: No Heavy Residue Records: No Microfaunal Records: No
