Interpretation

- Skeleton slightly twisted on its right side. This skeleton is in a grave truncating the metalworking area. Itay have been buried in a shroud as it's arms and legs seem relatively tightly bound. This skeleton is likely one of a number that appear to truncate an area of early medieval metal working
