| Notes: | Basket 7 is a large basket that is meant to clear away much of the 16th and 17th century fill into which the graves have been cut. A safety bulk is being left to protect grave 2006-7. This will be cleared at a later date after the skeleton has been removed. This will also keep the workmen busy on projects while the delicate work of excavating the child's remains is being finished. Another potential grave cut has been found to the west of grave 2005-7. This will be dug in a separate basket (B8). 2 pieces of an adult human skull have already been recoverd from the general area of the cut but there were no other remains in B7. Basket 7 continues on the E side of the grid as it is the same soil composition as on the west. A coin was found at E 410,41 / N 976,77 / H 91,93. On the east side of B7 an extension of wall 290 is coming to light. This B will be completed May 31 2006. Three more blocks that belong to wall 290 have been unearthed. All three blocks measure 1.3 meters in length. Basket was stopped due to a change in soil texture. | |
