The contents rested on or above a layer that is said to be at about the same level as the pebble mosaic floor, and thus the pyre probably postdates the laying of that floor. It was probably burnt in situ , though it is badly disturbed. The concentration of burning, burnt bone, and pottery suggests a pyre.
