Material size: large stone: L 0.63 x D 0.28; medium stone: L 0.39 x D 0.24; small stone: L 0.30 x D 0.16. Material finish: Worked. Material construction: One course visible. Material bonding: none. | Notes: | | This structure is a stone lining found in the excavation of Grave 2016-07. It served as part of the northern border of the grave, but the cut for the burials excavated did not encompass the northern edges of the stones. The stones are worked blocks, but the two stones visible on the east side are smaller and less regular. The two on the west are more regular. The line of stones does not span the enitre north edge, but only three quarters of it. The line is also not prefectly parallel with the edge of the grave but angles into the scarp on the west side. The cut (1000) for skeleton context 998 does coincide with the orientation of the stone lining. This was the skeletal material found at the bottom of Grave 2016-07, truncated by later burials. | Period: | | No precise date (NPD) | Grid: | | 128-126.2E, 1069.65-1070N | XMin: | | 126.2 | XMax: | | 128 | YMin: | | 1069.65 | YMax: | | 1070 | Site: | | Corinth | City: | | Ancient Corinth | Country: | | Greece | Masl: | | 84.52-84.81m. | References: | | Image: digital 2016 0554
