Description:
T7-I31. Male individual given the great robustness of the skull, in the glabellar, supraorbital and inion areas. This is also true of the postcranial skeleton, especially in the arms. The humerus shows male discriminants in the main variables (epicondyle width, maximum and minimum diameters in the middle and diameter of the head).

Age: Young adult, based on tooth wear, between 25 and 35 years old. Height: based on the maximum length of both femurs and right tibia, it would have been in the range of 160 to 161 cm.

Individual located beneath Individual I6. Individual I31 was near the center of the tomb. Positioned prone, parallel to the major axis of the tomb, with a NW-SE (head-feet) orientation. The body was found outstretched.

The legs were extended and parallel, in their anatomical position. There is a significant separation at the level of knees and ankles. For all these reasons, the wrapping of the corpse can be ruled out.
