Cut of N-S grave containing SK6142.
Issued to

Interpretation

    • Cut of N-S aligned grave. Cut is rectangular however is wider at the southern end, which is where you would expect to find the skull however the feet lie at this end and the head at the southern end of the cut. Cut sides are very steep and the a lot deeper then a lot of the nearby burials.
