  of 
  a 
  male 
  and 
  a

  The 
  

   bones 
  had 
  been 
  disturbed 
  by 
  some 
  burrowing 
  animal, 
  probably 
  a 
  

   woodchuck. 
  The 
  skeletons 
  lay 
  back 
  to 
  back, 
  the 
  female 
  on 
  its 
  left 
  

   side 
  and 
  the 
  male 
  on 
  its 
  right. 
  The 
  skull 
  of 
  the 
  female 
  was 
  twisted 
  

   directly 
  around 
  and 
  the 
  lower 
  jaw 
  rested 
  on 
  the 
  male's 
  occiput 
  

   with 
  the 
  chin 
  toward 
  its 
  own 
  skull. 
  Between 
  the 
  two 
  skele- 
  

   tons 
  were 
  three 
  triangular 
  arrow 
  points, 
  a 
  leaf-shaped 
  point 
  and 
  a 
  

   lump 
  of 
  red 
  ocher. 
  The 
  male 
  lay 
  with 
  the 
  skull 
  to 
  the 
  south, 
  the 
  

   face 
  east 
  and 
  flexed 
  on 
  the 
  right 
  side; 
  the 
  female 
  originally 
  probably 
  

   lay 
  facing 
  the 
  southwest 
  with 
  the 
  skull 
  pointing 
  southeast, 
  on 
  the 
  

   left 
  side, 
  flexed.
