The skull is foramen magnum side up (bottom side up) with a humerus lying on top and at least two tibiae (edit: one was a juvenile femur) lying on tope and to the south side of it. A femur is deposited on top of the tibia (edit: juvenile femur). It apperas as though the tile covering (960) did not span the enitre space of the burial space, which allowed the bones being placed in the grave over the inhumation to fall in the space between the covering (960) and the cut (944). The skull fell so that it was partly beneath the tile covering. Bones of the bone pile: 1 adult L femur, 1 juvenile femur, 1 adult humerus, 2 adult ulnae, 1 adult R. tibia. The skull is facing west. | | Period: | | Frankish (1210-1458 AD) | | Chronology: | | NPD | | Grid: | | 126-125.15E, 1073.8-1074.1N | | XMin: | | 125.15 | | XMax: | | 126 | | YMin: | | 1073.8 | | YMax: | | 1074.1 | | Site: | | Corinth | | City: | | Ancient Corinth | | Country: | | Greece | | Masl: | | 84.802-85.048m. | | References: | | Images (6)
