Interpretation

- This deposit was not fully characterised as of the 2022 season as it was not fully excavated. At this point, possibilities are that it could represent the fill of a possible gully running approx E-W, but no obvious cut could be identified especially on the Northern side. Alternatively, this deposit could represent a silting layer overlying (2168), rather than a gully cut into it. More investigation would be required to confirm either way. What can be established is that grave F717 does appear to be truncating this deposit.
