Interpretation

    • scheletro umano in giacitura primaria parzialmente compromesso da sepoluture a lui posteriori che vi insistono (HRU 3097; HRU 3069)
      • Ann Kuttner
    • 3-7-2006
    • Adult human skeleton in primary deposition. Was cut along its spine for the construction of the bell-casting pit. Only the lower leg remains of the skeleton's dx side. The tomb for this skeleton is much more elaborate than those found previously in the chapel (tufa/mortor construction near body, brick and tufa wall, spicatum brick covering), lending the burial an air of importance.

Description

  • Fully articulated skeleton oriented on a E-W axis whose upper right half was cut for creation of the bell-casting pit. Lies along the north wall of the chapel.
  • trowel and small tools

  • W-E
  • partially conserved (skeleton cut by SU 3135)
  • well preserved
  • Adult male skeleton resting near the north wall in the center area of the chapel, oriented on an E-W axis. The head of the skeleton is missing. Skeleton was cut lengthwise along its spine and is missing its entire right side up to its lower leg. Both hands are missing. The feet are partially intact, though a number of bones are missing. The left foot turns in toward the right foot, and the right foot is also bent horizontally (parallel to the floor-at the same angle as the left). The skeleton lies in a constructed tomb.
  • HRU 3102 was exposed in 2006 and then re-covered. It was left in the ground because it was out of phase (its lower legs passed under pavement 3128). The skeleton was documented in 2006 before being recovered, but it seems likely that some of the smaller bones may have been lost due to exposure. For example, it is possible that the dx or sx hand may have been preserved in situ over pelvis, but only a single finger was found in place when the skeleton was fully excavated in 2007. The head is likely the head found with HRU 3097 that was interred directly above HRU 3102.
