Neolithic burial with tightly flexed individual, buried lying on its right side, face somewhat downwards. The top of the cranium has been exposed since season 2012. The actual burial was to some extent (southern part) hollowed by burial F. 7001, which was on top of it.
The infill was compact and was partly removed as u. 20818, as the boundary between this unit and fill u. 20823 of F. 7008 was not visible in the upper strata.
The skeleton sk. 20824 seemed to be resting its lower back against a large phytolite item, possibly a small reed matt. This might, however, belong to a burial physically and stratigraphically between F. 7007 and F. 7008. Below sk. 20824, bones from a baby and an adult are visible. |
