Data Category Information: Location: feature; Description: bin; Deposition: homogeneous
Discussion: This was a bin infill defined in the NE corner of GDN 2015 trench. There were four bins adjacing one another (infills no 22895, 22889, 22883, 22888) and 22888 was the easternmost one. All the bins' infills were placed underneath 22871 and shared visual characterictics with it. Bins' structures were attached to the N wall of B. 81 annex. Their bottoms were slightly below the floor (22858) level of B. 81 annex.
On top of this infill there was a cattle cranium in upside down position as if it had fallen from an upper part of the wall. It was adjacing a large architectural fragment but not attached to it. The cranium was recorded within 22871 as x4.
