Summary 2007-07-16 sG One room burial structure in locus k105 containing an adult skeleton. Three mudbrick walls were identified on the west, south and east. The inner sides of the western and eastern walls have collapsed in a way which suggests that the tomb may have been vaulted. Grave goods found in the burial include two silver earrings (i33, i36), ceramic vessel i34, and bronze bucket i29. [Input: R716SG.j]

Recovery/Assignment

Roster Date Author Record
Notes on recovery 2001-07-15 fAB This tomb seems to have a female skeleton (since the skeleton had earings). THere is the chance that there is a second body. The very high location of the pail is odd, but is is difficult that the pail belongs to the surrounding accumulation, because it was found within the structure a9; perhaps it was hanging from the vaulted roof of the strucure?
