Digital Object 1986
Description:
T2-I04. Individual placed lying in prone position with the face pointing to the left. The upper limbs were arranged parallel to the body. The position of the hands is unknown due to their absence. The legs were extended and parallel to each other, with the feet resting on the dorsal surface. There was no evidence of compression on any part of the body.
Its poor state of preservation only enabled clear observation to be made that the right elbow, knees and ankles had a tight anatomical connection, suggesting decomposition in a densely packed space.
br> Individual I4 was deposited with the head facing SE, between individuals I2 and I5. The left half of their body was on the right half of individual I5, while their right arm rested on the left shoulder of individual I2. Their feet rested on the right leg of individual I16. Their trunk was hidden by a bundle of bones (P1).
Height could not be estimated because no long bones could be measured. However, the length of the skeleton was 165 cm (head-feet).
The poor state of preservation and the absence of numerous bone pieces did not allow assessment for the presence of bone pathologies or alterations.
