Unit 15141
Category: Layer dug in 2010
Area: Trench 5
Interpretive Categories: top soil and grave fill
Data Category Information: none
Dimensions: 0.46m - 0.87m - 0.12m
Discussion: The fill from burial unit 15142 (F.3317) contained animal bone fragments (small), peices of both gray and red mud brick, small obsidian debitage, and some sherds. Disturbed fill of burial, as the human remains, have seemed to move down slope, so the fill and cut of the burial were unclear. The human remains frim U.15138 may be the same individual. The fill and skeleton have eroded and been disturbed East (down slope) of the cut 15143.
