List of refitting units

Conjoining antler fragments form refitting units. The refitting units are recorded, according to identification numbers. A refitting unit consists of two or more conjoining elements. Each refitting unit is recorded with several attributes.

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60 61 62 63 64 65 66 67 68 69 70 71 72 73 74 75 76 77 78 79 80 81 82 83


List of Units: 51-60

ID:51
Refit:95/47, 95/80
Morphological description: a: Tine, medial fragment
b: Tip of tine
Spatial provenance:a: A
b: A
Distance: ?
Stratigraphical provenance: a: ?
b: ?
Special characteristics: -

ID:52
Refit:33/54, 33/27
Morphological description: a: Tip of tine
b: Tine, medial fragment
Spatial provenance:a: A
b: A
Distance: ?
Stratigraphical provenance: a: ? b: ?
Special characteristics: -

ID:53
Refit:75/28, 75/59
Morphological description: a: Tine, medial fragment
b: Tip of tine
Spatial provenance:a: A
b: A
Distance: ?
Stratigraphical provenance: a: ?
b: ?
Special characteristics: The breakage between both elements is encrusted by sediment.

ID: 54
Refit:97/122, 97/149
Morphological description: a: Tine, medial fragment
b: Tine, medial fragment
Spatial provenance: a: A
b: A
Distance: ?
Stratigraphical provenance: a: ? b: ?
Special characteristics: Weathering cracks partly were formed prior to fragmentation of the refitting unit.

ID:55
Refit:323/6, 323/407
Morphological description: a: Crown tine fragment, basal
b: Crown tine, medial fragment
Spatial provenance:a: B
b: B
Distance: ?
Stratigraphical provenance: a: b
b: ?
Square 323 is disturbed by one of the major faults of the site. Its north-eastern wing is partly split open horizontally. Water-moved sediments and finds were found in the fault. Find a occurred at the edge of the north-eastern wing of the fault. Find b is not mapped. Therefore it was found either in the fault or in the Chara limestone horizon.
Special characteristics: Surface preservation of both finds is identical: weathering cracks and advanced cortex destruction.

ID:56
Refit:506/86, 506/75
Morphological description: a: Tip of tine
b: Tine, medial fragment
Spatial provenance: a: A? (Western trench)
b: A? (Western trench)
Distance: ?
Stratigraphical provenance: a: ?
b: ?
Special characteristics: Weathering cracks and advanced cortex destruction characterise the surface preservation of both finds. Further information about the three-dimensional positions of the finds is not available. A provenance from planum a seems probable.

ID:57
Refit:461/99, 461/121
Morphological description: a: Tine, medial fragment
b: Tine, medial fragment
Spatial provenance: a: B
b: B
Distance: ?
Stratigraphical provenance: a: Planum a
b: Planum a
Special characteristics: Both finds are heavily eroded, as has sometimes been seen for finds from the Chara limestone horizon. The antler cortex is completely destroyed.

ID:58
Refit:479/100, 479/211
Morphological description: a: Tine, medial fragment
b: Tip of tine
Spatial provenance: a: B
b: B
Distance: ?
Stratigraphical provenance: a: Planum a
b: Planum a
Special characteristics: Weathering cracks and nearly total loss of antler cortex characterise the surface preservation of both finds.

ID:59
Refit:33/42, 33/40
Morphological description: a: Tine, medial fragment
b: Tip of tine
Spatial provenance: a: A
b: A
Distance: ?
Stratigraphical provenance: a: ?
b: ?
Special characteristics: -

ID:60
Refit:354/142, 354/132
Morphological description: a: Crown tine, tip of the tine
b: Crown tine, medial fragment
Spatial provenance: a: B
b: B
Distance: ?
Stratigraphical provenance:a: Planum a
b: Planum a
Special characteristics: Weathering cracks and nearly complete loss of antler cortex characterise the surface preservation of both finds. The finds are not represented in the plans of this excavation square. Find a exhibits a distal negative, paralleled by a second one which is modern. Weathering cracks partly were formed prior to breakage of the refitting unit.
