Primary neolithic burial with skeleton on its right side, in tightly flexed position.
Two items of orange material with thin plaster on top, round, flat and about 7-8 cm in diameter, seemed to have been placed on the body, by the left knee (X1) and behind the lower back (X2); although the latter seemed to go into the wall of the cut so far under previous F. 7003, so that it might not belong to sk. 20832. X2 had a few cm of hollowness above it (photographed). A sample of both dust in the hollowness and of the item (broke off accidentally) was collected, but the rest left in situ.
The burial had, at some point , possibly not long after it was dug, been disturbed (althought the skeleton was still in situ), and the cranium of sk. 20830 placed by the side/slightly on top of the cranium of sk. 20832. |
