Description:
T7-I19. Sex not determined as this is a subadult individual. Age: subadult, between 15 and 17 years old, based on the fusion of the epiphysis and the shape of the body of the recovered vertebrae. Height: could not be calculated.

Individual situated beneath Individual I1. Individual I19 was located on the SW side of the tomb, near the west corner, with the head forming part of the boundary, while the body was positioned towards the interior of the tomb, perpendicular to its main axis. The orientation of the individual was SW-NE (head-feet). The position of the body seems parallel to the NW side of the tomb, although the legs have disappeared.

All these bones are in an anatomical position and with close connections in all the recovered pieces, this is especially evident in the thoracic vertebrae and in the anatomical position of the recovered skull remains. That is why it is believed that they were buried in a densely packed space.
