Discussion: This layer was the burial infill for a late period grave in the SW corner of trench 2. It was a greyish brown color, friable, and silty clay in texture. It was relatively homogeneous within the burial cut. 13 flotation samples were taken of this burial infill (S2- S14). There were fragments of animal bone and pottery found in this fill (along with human bone).

Note on samples:
Flotation samples S2-S14 are all the same fill and can be regarded as the same sample.
