Unit 23827
Category: Skeleton dug in 2017
Area: North
Interpretive Categories: primary adult burial
Data Category Information: none
Description: Primary inhumation of an adult individual
Discussion: Primary burial of an adult most likely in phase with building 167 (under bld. 52). The same burial includes disarticulated remains of a juvenile individual (Sk. 23837) that appears to have been buried first and then later disturbed by the inhumation of Sk. 23827. The cut is 23826. Individual Sk. 23827 is an adult female and estimated to be between 35 and 45 years old at time of death. There is asymmetrical dental wear that may indicate an uneven bite or unilateral use. A single mandibular molar is cracked through the crown, which resulted in a localised infection (abscess).
