Interpretation

    • N:S burial of child with folded arms in simple earth grave that may be multiple in inhumation with HRU 3740* since they are placed close together, with neither disturbing the other

Description

  • N-S burial of child, south of 2001 and next to HRU 3740*
  • small tools
  • simple earth
  • none
  • N-S
  • mostly complete
  • poor
  • Mostly complete skeleton of child with N-S orientation with head tilted back slightly and top vault of cranium not preserved. Right arm hand over left shoulder, left arm folded with hand on pelvis. Skull was lying exactly east and directly beside the skull of 3740*. 3762*'s right elbow may overlap the left homerus of 3765*, suggesting that 3762* was placed on top.
  • Could it have been placed in the same grave as HRU 3740*? All three child burials in this area are the same size-same age?
