Description:
Tomb T7 is a 60 m³ pit containing 43 individuals (the MNI of this tomb is currently under review) all buried in an extended ventral decubitus position: 19 males, 7 females, and 16 infants.
Two individuals, an infant and an adult male, were persons of high status. The infant had twice as many high-status artifacts (cuffs) so it was thought that his status was greater than that of the high-status adult accompanying him. They were placed in the center with their arms crossed over their chest and their heads facing east. Both had pectorals, cuffs, belts, and pendants - made of gold, copper, and stone - as well as other artifacts made from animal teeth.
In total the tomb contained 921 artifacts of 46 different varieties. A small pit was excavated in the blocks of sediments that buried the burial, in which an offering was deposited consisting of a necklace of spherical resin beads wrapped with gold covers; a pectoral and two miniature cuffs; and some small ceramics, some of which were effigies. The necklace, pectoral and cuffs are similar to those associated with the high-status infant of this tomb.
