Interpretation
-
- Secondary fill of bell shaped pit [6257], consisting of redeposited natural and large stone inclusions. Second layer of activity within use of large pit - may suggest an intentional dumping layer? Layer has a lining of large stones, which have been disturbed by the burrowing activity, but could suggest an intentional sealing of previous layer , (6258), for continued use as storage?
