Object History Note15/10/2024 - Cremated bones from this box were studied in 2022 by an Osteoarchaeology MSC student. The material was removed from the original poly bags, which contained the individual accession numbers and context information. The material was re-bagged by the student according to bone ID, therefore the fragments have now been taken out of context, and it is no longer possible to assign the original ABDUA numbers to these fragments. H. Clarke.
