Cut in context 1046 filled by context 1048. The cut operlaps 10-20 cm with cut 1042 and the difference from the fills from the two contexts is difficult to discern. Since floor 1005 covers the top of context 1046 it seems likely that cut 1042 was excavated after  context 1047. However the temporal difference with these could be very small. In this pit we found bronze artefacts (find A30).

This pit can be interpreted as an offering deposited in proximity to the posthole. It probably served the same porposes as the pit 1042.
