Description (summary) 2001-09-04 okk f188 fill, f187 structure of grave a21. This burial was found while removing the northern baulk of k2. It was a young child burial, with two small vessels and two bronze bracelets on the right wrist. The skeleton of the child is in fetal position oriented EW, with the head facing to the west. The body is facing towards the north, and there were two small vessels placed to the north of it. This burial appears similar to the other child burial a19, in that it is in fetal position with a silver bracelet on the wrist and a vessel in front of the body. The bottom of the cut of the burial is about 50 cm below the bottom of a19, but appears to be of the same general time period. The top of the cut of this burial was very unclear, as was in the baulk and had likely already been cut on both sides. Given typolocial similarities and general use of are for graves it seems likely that a19 and a21 are contemporary. [Input: L904okk1.j]
