Discussion: This is a primary disturbed extended late burial of a child. The head was to the West, but the burial has been truncated by Mellaart's trench, so only the lower limbs, right hand and some loose bones from the left hand, sacrum and pelvis are present. The burial may be from the Islamic period as the right leg was positioned on its lateral side. No associated grave goods were located.
