Unit description: This material is from flotation only (S2). it is a fill from bin 4 in bldg 5. Less than 10% (by bulk not # of elements) is burnt. There are a couple of pieces with signs of digestion. All the material is from sheep-sized or smaller animals. identifiable pieces include a scapula fragment, part of the spinous process of a vertebra, some small cranial fragments, a second phalanx, and a long bone end from a small mammal or bird. Condition is good, suggesting relatively rapid burial. There is a worked bone point, made on a sheep sized long bone shaft (F16 ). Last Number =F20Figurine Records: No Ground Stone Records: Yes
