Digital Object 2149
Description:
EU104. At a depth of 3.15 m. It rests on the first step of the pit and is attached, in part (NE, NW and SW edges), to the walls of the pit (a section of the same that joins the first step with the second) and to the burial located on the second step (UE106). On it, in the N corner and NE side, the UE103 unit is supported. The clayey, sandy matrix of this unit is brown in colour and contains vessels and other artifacts arranged on the remains of a collapsed wooden decking. This decking is observed in the SW corner of the pit and along the SW edge of the pit. It appears to be charred. It stands out for presenting linear veins in parallel formation, typical of woods. It covered the space in which the bodies of the second step of tomb T2, individuals I11, I12 and I13, were deposited, converting the space in which these bodies were found into a funerary chamber.
