Description:
T7-I40. Male individual based on the fragments of the recovered skull, which included dimorphic areas, such as the mastoid process, inion area or glabella. Also the fragments of arms which were found returned male discriminants in dimorphic variables such as the epicondylar width of the right humerus. Age: young adult. Based on tooth wear between 25 and 35 years of age. Height: it was possible to calculate the height from the length of the right ulna, which was reconstructed to a large extent, and was 152 cm.

Individual situated beneath Individual I37. Individual I40 was in the centre of the grave, positioned prone and on the major central axis of the tomb, in a SE-NW (head-feet) direction.

All the preserved bone pieces were in an anatomical position and all the connections observed were close, especially the recovered vertebrae and ribs; also the right elbow. Burial in a densely filled space.
