Interpretive Categories: Redeposited skull 

 

Data Category Information: none

 

Description: Skull only-mandible & cranium detached (measurement above is of cranium only) 

 

Discussion: Adult Skull within fill of juvenile burial U. 19147/sk.19148, Probably disturbed by digging of grave cut 19149 and almost certainly part of sk.21732 which was revealed while cleaning base of cut 19149. Likely that this skull was removed-disturbing some of the upper vertebrae-then the juvenile skeleton was placed in the grave cut and this adult skull sk 19154 was then placed on top. The cranium was put back in roughly the same anatomical position but overlying the left arm of juvenile Sk. 19148 and the mandible-which had presumably already detached then placed near the left scapula of adult (sk.21732-the body of this skull).
