Description :   T6-I01. Of this individual, only the skull was found, which was placed in a prone position with the face resting directly on the bottom of the pit. The poor state of preservation and the absence of the rest of the post-cranial skeleton prevented a more exhaustive analysis. However, it is possible that this skull may correspond to an adult.

Description :   T6-I02. Individual deposited in supine decubitus position. Only the bones of the legs are preserved, in the SW direction.

Description :   UE167. Fill of dark gray earth, organic and of medium compaction, which appears in tomb T6 in its northern half. Its dimensions are 0.82 x 0.66 meters (SW-NE x SE-NW) and its thickness is about 20 cm. It contains materials, gold artifacts, lithic instruments, ceramics, and bone remains (both human and animal). This level has a visible N-S dip, which could indicate the collapse of some type of structure on which the offerings for the bodies buried there would be placed. It is below unit UE162, and fills UE165 . It is comparable to unit UE167.

Description :   EU165. Fossa cut. It is only partially preserved because it was cut to the NE by the fossa of tomb T1. Originally it probably had a quadrangular shape on the ground plan. We do not have enough data to calculate its original area. The SW sector and part of the SE have been preserved. Its corners are oriented towards the four cardinal points. Only its corner W is preserved. It is the fossa of tomb T6.

Description :   Tomb T6 was located below tomb T5 at a depth of 3.48-3.69 m. Of this unit, only an area of 2.48 x 2.30 m is preserved as it was cut by tomb T1 to the northwest and by T2 to the southeast. In this burial the lower limbs of two individuals were found in extended dorsal decubitus, partially overlapping each other in a very similar way to individuals I5 and I9 of tomb T2. These were covered by two layers of Polychrome Early Conte, Panelled Red and Conte Rojo (Lothrop typology, 1942) plates and trays placed face down. A thin layer of vegetation was arranged on top of this collection of ceramics. ...
