Discussion

This was a number issued to lift the finds from what was originally believed to be part of a disarticulated large animal skeleton (cow). However, by the end of the season it was apparent that this was part of an extensive linear concentration of animal bones which was immediately above the north-south aligned gully 002CA01016.
