I 20   THE ARCHEOI,OGICAI, EXCAVATIONS IN ANAU.

Terrace C presents us with a skeleton grave, to confirm the rule that the dead were buried near the hearth. It lay in the southeast corner of the excava-

tion at the level of + 20 feet

5ih   (see special report of

nces (   P   P

Warner)—i. e., about 3 feet below the original floor of the

°=   ~►   _.   room. The position of the
hearth and skeleton grave inside

of terrace C, together with the

- wall seen in the west side, is shown in fig. 54. Traces of a still older period were discovered

i   bw   in the southwest corner of the

terrace after removing the hearth and in the general down-

ward progress of the excavation.

'   _   •'   At +18 feet 5 inches stood the

remains of a pithos (height 66

cm., circumference I meter 6o cm.) of light greenish-yellow clay, made on the wheel.

The pottery found in terrace C was of considerably mixed older and younger

groups. In enlarging the terrace the surface covering of the hill had repeatedly to be removed. Owing to this and to the steepness of the declivity, remains of the upper younger

,r~•   'r,   culture must have fallen in; but,

on the other hand, whenever the layers of the terrace were isolated

..;   t   from the surface, the pottery

x `   corresponded throughout to the

finds of terrace B. There were 8

finds of copper, consisting PP ~    of frag-
ments of dagger-blades, pins, awls, and a ring. The smaller finds

?€ r      are also analogous to those in ter-
race B—beads of agate, turquoise, and stone, especially marble; fragments of stone vessels, etc.

The finds in the shafts men-

Fig. 54.—Fireplace in Stage of Excavation. (Skeleton in Position.)   tioned above contributed materi-

ally to the collection of ceramic materials. The chief result in this respect was the discovery that the making of the ware of light-colored clay, in wheel-technique, dates from the earliest period of the kurgan. For the rest, I refer to the section concerning special finds.
