Unit 19460
Category: Skeleton dug in 2012
Area: North
Interpretive Categories: skeleton
Data Category Information: none
Discussion: The obsidian mirror was found to the right (north) of this burial and above it. Therefore, the mirror seems to be in a sealing layer for this area. The closest elements to it are disarticulated vertebrae.
Over 100 beads were found in close association with skeletal elements and especially at the feet (ankles), torso and neck, but also above the cranium.
