Grave VIII represents a minimum number of 1 individual, but three clusters of articulated elements may represent up to 3 individuals.
articulated elements, identified as Grave I, Burial A, a primary interment.
articulated elements, identified as Grave 1, Burial B, which were directly associated with ochre layer and fox skull and humerus, remains of a primary interment or perimortem movement of torso and skeletal elements.
articulated elements of cranium and cervical vertebrae, identified as probable male.
articulated elements of left arm, gracile, identified as probable female.
articulated elements of right distal limb segment (Fibula and Tibia).
*Possible association of a single individual based upon size/morphology, but no direct articulation, moved after primary interment.
