| Marcie Handler ... Cist grave for two infants. The grave was cut into a sterile rocky layer on its southern and western sides, and a sterile fill layer on its northern and eastern sides. No obvious grave marker was present, ... Early Iron Age ... A piece of the handle of the cup was found 30 cm higher in the grave filling than the cup itself, and parts of the rim and neck of the amphoriskos were never recovered (even though water sieving), providing further proof that the grave was at least partially disturbed. ... A vertical-handled amphoriskos (ΒΖ 2187) was found near the left shoulder of the skeleton, while a one-handled cup (ΒΖ 2189) was found alongside the skeleton's lower right leg. ... While it is possible that the two individuals in the grave were interred at two different times each with his/her own vessel, there was no evidence for two separate burial moments, and the earlier vessel (the amphoriskos) was found at a slightly higher elevation than the later vessel (the cup). |
