Description:
T7-I02. Female individual. Calculated age of 35 and 45 years from tooth wear. Height could not be determined as no complete long bones were preserved.

Individual situated on top of Individuals 18 and 25. Individual I2 was on the NE edge of the pit, placed in prone position, and parallel to the main central axis of the tomb, in the NW-SE (head-feet) orientation, with the head in the north corner of the pit and the feet slightly pointing to the SE.

All the bone pieces recovered were in an anatomical position, with very close joint connections, except for the left humerus (as is usually the case due to the characteristics of the glenohumeral joint). Buried in densely packed space.
