Discussion

One of the few instances where a direct stratigraphic relationship between two Grubenhaüser could be demonstrated, this grubenhaus was shown to cut Grubenhaus master number 002CB00089. It was notable for its lack of finds, in direct comparison to the large numbers of finds from the earlier Grubenhaus fills. No post holes were discovered during excavation, although it is possible that post hole 002CB00087 (initially thought to be in grubenhaus master 002CB00089) may be the eastern post of this Grubenhaus.
