A skeleton of an infant in an infill (burial). The infill, unit number 19446 in space 1002, is grey, with silt and clay texture where the skeleton is buried. The infill has different stratified layers, which give way to hard compact layers, moving from friable layers. The infill has X finds (X.1) of metallic nature alongside the right thorax region of the skeleton. On both sides of the infill, compact wall like boundaries seem to line the skeleton, possibly making the burials boundaries. Along with the skeleton buried in the infill there were also fragments of ceramics, rodent remains (and a burrow). The skeleton is buried in a supine extended East- West orientation, the head pointing west, all limbs extended.


The infill (19446) shown above was a burial of an infant, whose skeleton (unit number 19454) was fragile and some parts missing.
