Eugene Vanderpool ... Disturbed burial: Pocket in bedrock (Grave 11: PG). In some records as Grave XI. No remains. No cutting or traces of burning nearby
The coin listed here was found "cleaning bedrock", presumably at the ... Developed to Late Protogeometric ... The vases constitute evidence for early burials on the southeast slopes of the Kolonos Agoraios, although no trace of graves, or of any robbed tomb pits, was preserved nearby. It is equally possible that the vases derive from a destroyed tomb on the southeast side of the hill proper, rather than its slopes. |

R. Ross Holloway ... Protogeometric Grave in Koletti Garden. Male inhumation.

The tomb was located just southeast of the house, between the paved terrace and the annex to the east. It consisted of an unlined rectangular pit, oriented southeast-northwest, cut into bedrock to a depth of about 0.25m, below the level of the surrounding bedrock, and measuring approximately 1.45m long and averaging 0.60m wide. Within the pit, the skeleton of a man aged 18-21 years at death, and described as somewhat decayed, was laid out on his back in a fully extended position, head to the southeast. the fill of the tomb appeared to consist of sterile redeposited bedrock and it was hastily dug by the workmen prior to the arrival of a trained excavator. the floor of the tomb was encountered at 1.95m below the level of the court in the area of the cess pit, ca. 1.15m below the level of the tiled pavement along the east side of the Kolletti House |

Unusual features of the tomb were a small recess in the back or south wall, in which stood the askos, and a rough stone slab which was found on the floor near the center of the east side, but which may once have been a grave marker at ground level.
... Two skeletons, both to the west of the entrance, extended with feet toward the door, seem to represent the latest interments, although the eastern one had been somewhat pushed to the side. In the southeast corner and along the west wall there were swept-up piles of bones and offerings from earlier burials, and in the northwest corner there was a small round pit (0.50m in diameter by 0.20m deep) full of bones. |

| Homer A. Thompson ... Cremation burial (trench-and-hole) under S. edge of E-W Street, southern burial. In some records as Grave XLVI.
Neat trench, rectangular as preserved, but may have originally been square, cut partly through ... Early Geometric I ... The north side of the trench was destroyed by the a Turkish cess pit. As preserved, the trench measured ca. 1.05x 0.60m, and was presumably oriented east-west, but as the north side was destroyed it is possible that the trench extended toward the north and may, therefore, have had a north-south orientation. Be that as it may, a deep, circular urn-hole was cut into the southeast corner of the pyre trench to a depth of 0.45m below the level of the floor, and measuring 0.35m in diameter.
