Title:   Burnt Pocket/ Pyre
Category:   Pyre
Description:   Identified as pyre by SIR.
In room E. Burnt "pocket" found while digging red earth that contained late Hellenistic pottery, including a fragment of Pergamene (discarded). No pit was discerned, but concentration in a "pocket" suggests that the pyre was in its original position and the layer in which it was buried contained late Hellenistic intrusions. There is no evidence for the relationship of the pyre to building phases. No bone was recorded.
Notes:   No lot.
