… skeleton 6 with the vessels 33, 34 is considered younger than skeleton 3 with its burial vessels. Skeleton 7 is considered contemporary with 3. High above these skeletons, anträ and separated from them by thick layers of slumped earth, skeleton 5 is found which was evidently laid down considerably later than the others. (Cf. also the later, geometric character of the grave vessels.) — In more recent times the tomb has evidently been plundered quite superficially. In connection with this a number of grave-vessels have been smashed and moved from their position. Nevertheless, the careful, as well as horizontal and vertical determination of the sherds should be a good guide in establishing to which skeleton they belonged. The relative chronology of the various skeletons among themselves, with the associated ordena indicated vessel groups, thus appears to be as follows:
1/ Skeleton 4 (vessels 63; 67; 68)
2/ Skeleton 1–2 (-"- 22; 23; 25; 39; 40–44)
