Short Description:
Fill of grave 2531 truncating wall 2530
Issued to
Ben Swain | 17/09/2023

Interpretation

    • Fill of a grave containing SK2532, truncating wall 2345 F723. This material was likely the intentional backfill of the grave with the same material from which the grave was dug. There are some higher quantities of charcoal/burnt clay that may be associated with limekiln F217. The grave was not fully exposed or lifted in the 2023 season
