Unit 13146

Category: Layer    dug in 2006

Area: North 

Interpretive Categories: burial fill 

Data Category Information: Location: cut; Description: burial; Deposition: homogeneous

Discussion: The unit is the grave fill of SK13126 once it was recognized that the skeletom was one of three individuals articualted within the middle layer of the multiple burial pit. The upper levels of the grave fill are unit 12996 which represents the grave fill of several individuals. The unit 13146 is somewhat arbitrary sice the grave fill for SK13126 was originally placed in unit 12996. The goal was to distinguish the burial fill as separate from other burials should specific items were formed in the fill of SK13126.
