Unit description: No material from dry sieve. Sample 1 >4mm flotation 100% sorted, recorded completely. Smallish sample, includes some skull fragments from goat horn core deposit. Otherwise little scrappy bits of sheep-size bones, about half burnt to various degrees. Aside from goat skull, most are rather weathered. A piece of burnt eggshell. Except for goat skull, looks like fill. Sample 4 >4mm flotation 100% sorted, recorded completely. Slightly larger sample. Also contains skull and horn core fragments from burnt goat horn core deposit. There is also most of a (complete in the ground?) young sheep/goat scapula, burnt at low temperatures. Otherwise mostly little crumbles, with a few larger pieces. More burning than sample 1. More burnt eggshell, as well as an unburnt snake vertebra.
