Description: Primary individual adult burial 

 

Discussion: Primary individual adult burial. The individual 23236 is laying suppine, facing up, the forarms are extended, the hands are placed underneath the pelvis area. The legs are flexed with the right one on top of the left one. The clavicle are verticalised, the rib cage is constricted. Phytholits were found beneath and on top of the rib cage (No sample). An ochre thin layer was found as well underneath the pelvis, we took Sample 3. Two worked bones that remind a brooch were revealed to the right and left of the cranium. This could be a possible pin to hold a body envelopp.
