Unit 32741
Category: Skeleton dug in 2017
Area: North
Interpretive Categories: primary adult
Data Category Information: none
Discussion: sk. 32741 appears to be later inhumation which intersected previous burial (see unit 32742;32743, 32739-bones floating in the infill). It appears to be an adult subject highly constrained by some form of wrapping as possibly supported by the presence of phytholiths and pigment on the respectively the right and left sides of the skeleton. After processing of the bones, no ochre find on most of the skeleton, except for one rib fragment and the occipital fragments. If there was ochre, it might have been related to the organic (Skin/leather) wrapping. This individual was very difficult to recover and very fragmented.
