Individual located on top of Individuals 22, 27 and 19. Individual 1 was on the NW edge of the pit, placed in prone position, and perpendicular to the main central axis of the tomb, in a SW-NE (head-feet) direction. The body adapted to the contours of the pit, with the feet in the north corner and the head, showing a foreshortening, in the west corner (W) of the tomb, parallel to the SW boundary.

The skull and pelvis have not been recovered, only some teeth and jaw fragments. The articular facets of the recovered thoracic vertebrae show no signs of arthrosis. All the preserved bone pieces were in an anatomical position and all the connections observed were close. Burial in densely packed space.
