To the same layer (+ 24.75 feet) is to be referred the broken pot of ordinary technique and probably also the erect stone mortar whose lip stood at + 25 feet io inches. Whatever occurs below this must equally belong to the older culture; therefore the four skeleton graves, together with their burial gifts of copper and bead ornaments, are of especial value as being the first burials of the older culture to be found.

This circumstance might be explained by the accidental falling of fragments during the excavation ; but it is also possible that in ancient times they by chance became buried deeper here than elsewhere. A third explanation would be that the skeletons at + 22 feet 5 inches were younger than the pithoi in situ. In this case the skeleton graves with their burial gifts would have to be assigned to the younger
