The Hidden Burial in the Cist Grave Took Me Way Too Long to Spot

I spent three full days documenting a bronze age cist grave in Dorset, and somehow missed the secondary burial in the north corner until my supervisor pointed it out on day four. The soil discoloration was so subtle I kept dismissing it as root disturbance, but once you saw the bone fragments it was totally obvious. Has anyone else had a feature take way longer to recognize than it should have?

Was the bone fragment size what finally tipped you off or the alignment?

A buddy of mine @pipergonzalez said the alignment was off, not the size.
