Discussion

The second spit removed (by trowel) after the initial machine clearance in the south-west corner of area 2CA, continuing to remove the irregularities left by the machining. After the removal of this spit, two distinct buried soils were distinguished (002CA00080 and 002CA00081). These buried soils were subsquently excavated by spit, and were characterised by a high quantity of objects recovered. This spit was no exception to that rule, with 213 objects as opposed to only 8 animal bones recovered.
