Description
- upper half of an infant skeleton near threshold stone
- trowel, small tools, brushes
- N-S
- little remains in place except the spine and the head
- good
- The skeletal remains of an infant. All bones below the waist are lost. A heel of an adult skeleton was found lodged inside the infant's skull.
- It is possible that the heel in the infants head is that of HRU 3061, whose feet lay directly above the infant and who was missing a heel bone. His arms appear to have been crossed as seen in the other infant burials. His upper arm on his left side remains in position and finger points where found on his chest.
- mediocre (see observations for SU 3115)
Position
- NS--head faces north but is not perfectly aligned
