| This is a late (Islamic) burial located in the SE corner of the Trench 2. It was a grave with typical mudbrick superstructure that had cut through the Neolithic deposits. The cut for this grave was easily defined in its E part but not so well in its W part where the grave was truncated by yet another unspecified cut (perhaps same as 3918). Burial was pretty disturbed: a piece of skull and some scattered bones were found at the upper level, while the lower part of the body (legs and feet in articulation) were exposed at a much lower level. Judging from the legs it was understood that the skeleton was lying in extended position (oriented EW). In the middle of the exploration it has been decided to flotate burial's infill to enable further research on late graves. |
