Unit description: Flot number 2713 and 2715 Bin fill from space 173. The colour is generally light brown with a few small burnt pieces. There is one very clean unweathered carpal/tarsal from a small/medium sized carnivore (not given a GiD), as well as the unfused humerus of a small mammal. The only fragment identifiable to taxa is a small part of a sheep/goat horn core. Later a further sample of dry sieve material added a caprine pelvis fragment, an equid incisor, as well as a bone tool (=F37). Additional material from flotation sample 3 showed the presence of neonatal caprine bones.
