Sits in

Thirty one instances of an element satting in another were recorded. Most were isolate stones that had been displaced from nearby structures and that had been subsequently covered by accumulation like f125 that sits in brickfall f121. Other examples include fills sitting in pit cuts as it is the case in f137 that sits in f136 and the case of Tannur f165 sitting in accumulation layer f117.
