In the cemetery, however (Hargreaves’ Sites A and G), between 30 and 40 burial groups were excavated, the greater number associated with characteristic pottery, 270 vessels being recovered. If this proportion of burials to pots is typical, as seems likely, the 300 odd pots found by Colonel Jacobs and other unscientific diggers in the same cemetery must represent another 40-50 burials, so that at least 100 interments must have been made in that area of the cemetery dug into and recorded in some way or other. As we are ignorant alike of the full extent of the burial ground and of finds made but not recorded, the figure is almost certainly an understatement of the total content.
