Description:   Mycenaean Burial.
The cutting was roughly rectangular (1.60 by 0.50m) and was once covered with rough stone slabs, two of which were found over the body. The skeleton, presumably that of a man, lay in a somewhat contracted position with the head at the southeast and with the offerings, two pots and a bronze knife, at this end of the grave.
