It is one of those annoting floating contexts. (pardon the pun).. the 'fill' takes place after the pipe is laid, but depending on what you have, the deposition of layers/fill happen up to the present day...
try this one... a body in a coffin
Is it a fill?
is the sequence...
Burial cut -> Coffin -> Skeleton -> Fill
or, as the body was placed in the coffin prior to deposition in the ground
Burial cut -> Skeleton -> Coffin -> Fill
or even
Skeleton -> Coffin -> Burial cut -> Fill
hmmmmmmmmmm chronological and stratigraphic being different
"No job worth doing was ever done on time or under budget.."
