| Feature cluster in Area 4 looking northeast. These were flagged as anomalies during machine stripping and then investigated by hand. They proved to be a group of burial pits mainly dating to the Early Historic period.

Subsequently, each pit was carefully excavated and documented. In the background is one of the boat canals that had been dredged out after archeologists had cleared the area. TARL Archives. |
