Description: CW/CY, secondary burial. Skull CW was placed on top of the bundled long bones; skull CY east of them. Both skulls were facing east. Long bones were assigned to a particular skull regarding robustness. A well preserved cranial vault and fragments from the maxilla, humeri, right femur, left tibia and pelvis are reasonably well preserved. The cranium is dolichocran; the occipital bone shows a nuchal torus. The linea aspera of the right femur is strongly marked. The right femur also shows postmortem erosion on the distal part of the shaft. The left parietal bone reveals an unhealed pond fracture in the middle of the bone. The wound is round in shape exhibiting internal bevelling – with an outer diameter of 21 mm and an inner diameter of 30 mm – and a radiating fracture line. Body Height Estimation: 170,00 (Trotter & Gleser 1952).
