Unit 17622
Category: Skeleton dug in 2008
Area: TP
Interpretive Categories: Neolithic human skeleton
Data Category Information: none
Dimensions: 0.27 x 0.23
Discussion: This body was located in SW corner of the chamber and seems to be least disturbed. Only the skull was missing and it seems it was removed intentionaly because 1st and 2nd vertebreas were slightly displaced. The location of this burial is different from the other ones, which were concentrated in NE part of he chamber. It is difficult to say when the skull was taken (disturbed)when 17698 was buried or when they came back for this individual skull. Another possiibliyis that this child's skull was taken later than remval of 17698's skull.
