Discussion: Bones (human) from this unit were also found in U.20202 (the infill of Sp. 40) but mainly in or in close connection to animal holes cutting 20202 and not in the actual layer.
According to the humann anthropologists, this person was probably buried later than the adult below (19472), as 19472 is disturbed but 19484 quite well preserved and articulated to a larger extent.
Close to the mandible of 19484 were three green stone beads in a line, X-find no.1 of U.20203.
