Burial No. 12, lying with the trunk on the back, had the knees drawn up 
toward the chin. 
Seven vessels of earthenware came from this little cemetery, six of which were 
immediately with burials. 
Burial No. 3, adult, in addition to a bottle at the left humerus, had, at the 
left elbow, an interesting pipe of hard, black ware, shown in Fig. 1
