Smithson: Grave III: SM).; The close proximity and similarity of this tomb and tomb M 16-17:1 strongly suggests that they were intentionally laid out in relation to one another and were contemporary. Smithson considered Tomb 1 as containing the mother of the infant inhumed in Tomb 2.; The tomb consisted of a rectangular pit cut into bedrock to a preserved depth of 0.30m. Oriented north-south, the tomb measured 0.50m and 0.12-0.15m wide; it was slightly undercut, with traces of a ledge running the length of the tomb on both sides. Fragments of a coarse basin, were intentionally broken and placed above teh tomb as a cover, spanning the full length of the pit. Within the pit, the skeleton of a fetus or newborn infant was placed on its back in an extended position, head to the south. There were no distinct grave offerings. The fill of the tomb pit  largely comprised redeposited bedrock chips.; AA 317: Owing to the fragility of the bones, the skeleton was encased in a large wax slab, making it impossible to study the human remains without X-rays.","N 16:1","Agora:Image:1997.20.0055::/Agora/1997/1997.20/1997.20.0055.tif::647::476","Eugene Vanderpool","Agora","29 May 1937",""

In some records as XXIII.; Variously labeled as grid 7/Δ, 7/Γ and 7/Γ-Δ.; Rectangular pyre trench cut through earth into bedrock, with only the lowest 0.04m surviving. The exact orientation of the trench has not noted in the field, but it appears to have been roughly oriented east to west (or east-southeast to west-northwest). The pyre trench measured about 1.25m long and was 0.52 m wide. The trench floor comprised what appeared to be scorched earth; it contained a few sherds, described by the excavator as being of ""small bowls"".; The urn-hole was located at the east end of the pyre trench; its diameter and depth were not recorded, but judging from the cover stones the pit probably measured just under 0.50m in diameter and was about 0.35m deep. In it, a neck-handled amphora , which served as cinerary urn, was placed in an upright position; it contained the cremated remains of an individual described as an adolescent aged 10-14 years at death. Analysis of the human remains showed that the cinerary urn contained a small child, no more than two years old.; ; See also P 34860-P 34866 catalogued as ""sherds overlying tombs ; F 16:3 & F 16:4"".","F 16:4","Agora:Image:1997.20.0455::/Agora/1997/1997.20/1997.20.0455.tif::1022::735","Dorothy Burr Thompson","Agora","15-16 March 1932",""
