Data Category Information: Location: cut; Description: posthole

Discussion: The unit was first numbered in 2013 as U19858 and interpreted as fill in part of the broader cut U19863. Now this unit received unit nr. 19863 and ais now interpreted as a post retireval pit. That means that U19858 and U30926 are the same unit.

The position of the unit - attached to the broad and long cut U19863 and attached to the north wall were the remainders of a pillar was recognized - tell that the post was taken up as or after the bi cut U19863 was made. So the big cut was not done as the post still was standing.
