Description:
UE335. Fill of earth of post hole stratigraphic unit UE334. Equivalent to the fill of stratigraphic unit UE327, with respect to which it is identical in color, composition, and texture. It lacks the characteristic reddish stain in the shape of a circular corona that has been interpreted, wherever it appears, as the residue left by the decomposition of a post in situ. The same is also found in the fills of the 14 post holes in tomb T7 (stratigraphic units UE320, UE322, UE330, UE332, UE334, UE336, UE338, UE340, UE342, UE344, UE364, UE366, UE368 and UE370). These 14 holes were empty at the time of the formation of the oldest layers of colmation arising from the temporary abandonment of the pit stratigraphic unit UE277 (stratigraphic units UE327 and UE328), which penetrated the interior of the holes. This in turn shows that the projected ring of posts remained unfinished. Below stratigraphic unit UE327 and fill to stratigraphic unit UE334.
