Digital Object 1980
Description:
T1-I05. The subject was in supine decubitus position with the face pointing to the right. In the case of the upper limbs, the humeri presented incomplete lateral abduction. The right elbow formed a 90° angle with supination of the forearm. The poor state of preservation made it impossible to observe the position of the left arm, hands and feet.
The height could not be estimated due to the poor state of conservation of the remains, but the length of the skeleton was 161 cm (head - feet). No pathological process or bone alteration was identified.
As for the articular relations and anatomical connections, these were in a restricted position, so it can be inferred that the decomposition took place in a densely packed space. However, some small movements were recorded without any significance as a result of various taphonomic processes.
This individual was deposited directly on the bottom of the grave between individuals I2 and I7, oriented so that its head, which was under individual I2, pointed to the north-west. On top of it was individual I6.
