Very little material and little evidence of burning in the fill suggests this was not a trash dump, unlike the large cut 2751 just to the S which had more burned orange and black soil. Possible posthole but would be very large to hold up the eaves of a roof over the central structure. Could be related to posthole/cuts found underneath the edges of the large storage feature 2700 to E.

Latrine? Due to rich soil, little anthropic material, enviro report... This is a working hypothesis.
