Fig 6. Grave goods position and associations within left-flexed burials.

This figure depicts the relations between grave goods in left-flexed burials (n = 112). A stylized burial pit is outlined in grey, a left-flexed body in black lines at the background. The positions of the symbols correspond to the standardized positions recorded for each grave good in the database, whereas the size of the symbol and the numbers within these symbols indicate the amount of graves in which that specific object category was placed in that specific position. In contrast to Fig 4, the majority of the artefacts rarely co-occur with other artefacts. A notable exception is the correlation between different vessel types placed behind the head of the deceased.
