Description: CR/CS/CU/XB, primary burial of at least 5 individuals, 4 adults and one subadult. The multiple burial was partly disturbed. The individuals were buried close together in a flexed position lying on the left side. From a male skeleton (CU) only the skull and upper left part of the body was preserved. Another male skeleton (CR) in front of it was almost undisturbed with the right hand placed on its left shoulder. The upper parts of the next two corpses, a male (CS) and a female (XB), were disturbed. The left hand of XB rested on the hip. Small bone fragments of a child were found scattered over the place. Small disc-beads were discovered on the head of individual CR, who was also wearing a necklace made of tubular and disc-beads and a bracelet on the right wrist. Well preserved cranium. Fragmented infra-cranial skeleton. The skull is ovoid shaped. The inferior margin of the nasal aperture is sharp edged and the maxilla displays a pronounced left canine fossa. The endocranial surface shows marked granular foveae. The parietal exhibits a healed depression fracture. Signs of inflammation at the sagittal suture, probably related to the injury. The left patella reveals a vastus notch (also found in CS and XB).
