Digital Object 2031
Description:
T7-I27. Sex not determined due to the fact that it is an infant individual. Age: this was calculated from the lengths of the long bones recovered, resulting in a range of 9 to 12 years, based on the vertical diameter of the femoral head. Height: could not be calculated.

Individual located beneath Individuals I1 and I6. Individual I27 was located on the NW side of the tomb, forming part of the boundary. Positioned prone, perpendicular to the major axis of the tomb, with a NE-SW (head-feet) orientation.

The two femurs and an incomplete fragment of the right pelvis were recovered, in an anatomical position and with a close connection. Buried in a densely filled space. We cannot rule out or affirm if the body was wrapped due to the scarcity of recovered remains.
