Discussion

The two-post Grubenhaus had a relationship with a pit (002CB02482) that was not observed during the excavation phase. However, from the section it appears obvious that the Grubenhaus cuts the pit. Also of note is fill 002CC00029, which contained a large number of both objects and animal bones.
