APPENDIX I:

BURIAL DATA TABLES

 Appendix I: Burial Data Tables

The composition of the following data tables should, I believe, be

fairly clear and straightforward. But some comment is required about the

data in a few categories.

Ceramic Phase

The dating of the burials must only be considered as approximate.

This is for the simple reason that the date of the ceramic phases is only

approximate. Since the burials were most often dated by the ceramic fill

in which each was found or by the pots placed as grave goods, then con-

sequently, the date of the burials can only be approximate. Burials of

known rulers or those which contained grave goods with a date(s) inscribed

have, of course, been reliably and accurately dated. But I believe it is

simpler to list and date all of them under the ceramic phases. The burials

dated to a particular phase are, however, listed in general chronological

order. So, for example, Burial 31, the first of the Imix phase burials at

Tikal, is of an earlier date than the last, Burial 1. This logic applies

to every burial of every phase of every site.

Burial Enumeration

The burials of several sites had to be specially enumerated for these

tables while the enumeration adopted by the excavators at other sites has

a logic that may not be immediately apparent. As a result, some explan-

ation of burial enumeration is required for each site.

1) Mountain Cow: The enumeration follows the sequence of appearance of the

burials in Thompson's text (Thompson 1931). Thus Chu1tun A becomes Burial

1, Chu1tun B becomes Burial 2, Chultun C becomes Burial 3, Vaulted Chamber

 344

I, Mound N becomes Burial 4, Burial III becomes Burial 5, Vaulted Chamber

11 becomes Burial 6, Vaulted Chamber I, Mound A becomes Burial 7, Vaulted

Chamber 111 becomes Burial 8, Burial VII becomes Burial 9, Burial 11 be-

comes Burial 10, Vaulted Chamber X becomes Burial 11, Chultun D becomes

Burial 12, Burial IV becomes Burial 13, Vaulted Chamber IX becomes Burial

14, Vaulted Chamber IV becomes Burial 15, Burial VIII becomes Burial 16,

and Burials 17 and 18 are the two remaining, unnumbered burials. This may

appear unnecessarily confusing but listing the burials in this way

eliminates cumbersome terms, indicates them simply as burials, and provides

a simple number for each.

2) Baking Pot: The 27 burials at Baking Pot are specially enumerated for

the tables since burials found at different locations within the site were

numbered identically by the different excavators. To avoid confusion,

Ricketson's (1931) Burial 1 has to be distinguished from the Bullards

(1965) Burial 1, and the Willey et al. (1965) Burial 1 and so on. The

simplest method to distinguish them is to add the first letter of the last

names of the respective excavators to the burials they found. Thus,

Ricketson's 15 burials from Mound G are referred to by the letter R and

follow his original numerical order. They are numbered RI to R15. The

same applies to the Bullards burials which are referred to and listed as

Bl to B7. The same principle applies to the Willey burials but because 4

burials were numbered the same from different mounds, the following

arrangement is made: Burial 1 of Group I, Plaza I is WI, Burial 2 of Group

I, Plaza I is W2, Burial I of Mound 3 is W3, Burial 2 of Mound 3 is W4,

and Burial 3 of Mound 3 is W5.

3) Barton Ramie: The burials for this site follow the enumeration imple-

mented by the original excavators, i.e. providing the number of the mound

in which the burial was found followed by the burial number.

 345

However, the composition of 2 burials, 147-2 and 123-11, are

different from the original. Burials 2, 3 & 4 of Mound 147 were so mixed

they are considered here as a single, multiple burial, 147-2, and not sep-

arately as originally presented (Willey et al. 1965: 142 & 554). There-

fore, there are no Burials 147-3 or 147-4 in the tables. Burials 11 and

12 of Mound 123 are considered a single burial of a mother and child,

Burial 123-11, as suggested by the original excavators but for some reason

presented separately (ibid.: 118 & 549). Consequently, there is no Burial

123-12 in the tables.

4) Bengue Viejo & San Jos~: At both sites the burials are enumerated in the way

originally adopted by Thompson (1940 & 1939, respectively), which was to

number the burials separately for each plaza group in which they were

found. There is one exception. In these tables, Burial B4, San Jos~, in-

cludes Burial B5. The interments were so mixed they are considered as one

burial, B4, and not separately as Thompson had done (Thompson 1939: 199).

Therefore, there is no Burial B5 in the tables.

5) Holmul: My enumeration follows the numerical order of Merwin & Vaillant

(1932), but since they did not adopt any formal numbering system I have

inserted the letter of the building in which each burial was found in

front of the burial number. Thus, the burials of Building B, Group 11,

consist of Burials Bl, B2, etc., and the burials of Buildings E and X,

consist of El and Xl, etc., respectively. But a problem arises by the

fact that burials were discovered in two different Building Fls. To avoid

confusion, the burials of Building F, Group I, are prefixed with the num-

ber 1, and the letter F, and the burials of Building F, Group 11, are pre-

fixed with the number 2, and the letter F. So, for example, Burial 1 of

Building F, Group I, is IF1, and Burial 1 of Building F, Group 11, is 2Fl.

The composition of 3 groups of burials are considered differently.

 346

Burials B17 - B19 were so mixed I have considered them as a single,

multiple interment, Burial B17, and not as individual burials. Burials

B3 and B4, though disturbed, consisted of only 1 body and should therefore

be considered a single interment, Burial B3. And Burials B13 & B14 were

so mixed they are best considered as the single, multiple interment,

Burial B13. Thus, Burials BIS, B19, B4 & B14 have been eliminated from the

tables.
6) Uaxacttin: All burials are enumerated as originally established by the

excavators, i.e. prefixed with the letter of the plaza group in which each

was found and followed by the burial number, e.g. AI, Bl, El, etc. The

burials found in housemounds are prefixed with the letters HM.

7) Tikal: The 107 burials of this site follow the original method of

enumeration and are numbered in the order of their discovery. The few

problematical deposits are prefixed with the letters PD.

S) Altun Ha: The enumeration for this site is the same as that adopted by

Pendergast (1979, 1982 & n.d.). The burial number is prefixed by the

structure in which each was found, e.g. Burial E-14/7. Burials that

Pendergast considered as tombs were prefixed with the letter T, e.g. TB-4/7.

I do the same even though I have not classified all his tombs as tombs,

e.g. TE-l/2 which I classified as a simple crypt.

In the tables are included the skull burials found in front of Str.

C-13 which were not listed by Pendergast. These are numbered as Burials

C-13/34 and C-13/35. In addition, Burial C-23/1 is separated into 3 dis-

tinct interments, a, b & c, as implied by Pendergast (1982: 250) but for

some reason not actually listed as such. They are in the tables.

9) Dzibilchaltun: The enumeration is the same as that used by Andrews and

Andrews (1980). It consists of a burial number prefixed by the structure

in which it was found, e.g. Burial 12-1. One burial, 96-6, is separated
 347

into 2 burials, 6a & 6b, because the 2 skeletons appear to have been dis-

tinct, non-contemporary, interments.

10) Altar de Sacrificios & Seibal: The Altar burials are enumerated as they

were by Smith (1972) and the Seibal burials are enumerated as they were by

Tourtellot (in press). The Seibal problematical deposits are prefixed by

PD, and the burials of both sites were simply numbered by the order of

discovery.
11) Copan: The enumeration follows the methods adopted by Gordon (1896) and

Longyear (1952). Gordon's Burials were simply numbered and those he con-

sidered as tombs were prefixed with the letter T. I do the same regardless

of whether I classified a grave as a tomb or not. The Longyear enumeration

has a rather different and more complex logic. A burial number is

composed of the number of a burial in the order of its discovery in a par-

ticular year followed by the year of discovery. So, for example, the

first burial found in 1938 becomes 1-38, or the second found in 1946 be-

comes 2-46, and so on. Burials he thought were tombs are enumerated the

same way with an additional prefix of the letter T. I do the same regard-

less of my classification of each grave.

However, 2 sets of burials, Burials 34 & 35 and 25 & 26, are both con-

sidered as contemporary, Single, multiple interments, Burials 34 & 25, by

me rather than individual interments (Longyear 1952: 36-37). Therefore,

Burials 35 & 26 do not appear in the tables.

12) Piedras Negras: The enumeration is the same as used by Coe (1959) but

includes the infant sacrifice designated as a cache, Cache R-3-2 or Lot 16,

by Coe (ibid.: 95) but as Burial 16 in the tables. It may be a dedicatory

cache but it is also clearly an interment and treated as such here.

13) Palengue: The burials of Palenque are a compilation of interments

found by different excavators which were either not numbered or not dis-
 348

tinguished. Distinction is made by using the first letter of the last

name of the respective archaeologist who discovered them, or the first

letter of the building in which each was found, as a prefix to the burial

number. Thus, 11 becomes Pacal's burial found in the Temple of lnscrip-

tions (Ruz 1954 & 1973); the R burials are those discovered by the Bands

(1961); the C burials are those found in the Temple of the fount (Ruz

1958b); the E burials are those found in Temple XVIII (Eighteen)(Ruz

1958a); and the A burials are those from Temple XVIII-A (Ruz 1962). The S

burials, which were discovered by Blom & LaFarge (1925-27), remain un-

changed.

14) Tonin': The enumeration follows the method adopted by Becquelin and

Baudez (1979). It consists of the burial number prefixed by the Roman

numeral of the operation number in which each burial was found. So, for

example, V-I is the first burial of excavation operation, V. A problem does

arise with 4 graves which were reused. Consequently, the burials are dis-

tinguished by the additional letters, A, B, and C. The burials in question

are IV-3A & IV-3B,C, IV-9A & IV-9B, IV-lA & IV-IB,C, and IV-2A & IV-2B,C.

Burial III-IA,B is merely a contemporary, multiple burial.

Grave Location

This means more or less what it says, i.e. in what structure, plaza or

whatever each burial was found. The floor level or statum in which each

burial was found is not specified, but an indication is made if burials were

found under benches, stelae, altars, or special burial constructions.

Grave Context

This refers to the type of structure in which a burial was found.

The contexts are as described and defined in the text (chpter 3).

Grave Type

The grave types are as I have classified them (chapter 2) but it is

the grave varieties, not just the types, which are listed. Consequently, I

have used the Roman numeral and Arabic number combination from the clas-

sification for simple graves in order to distinguish their otherwise unnamed

varieties (see Table 2). The same is done for capped pits (111:4) in order

to distinguish them from simple pits and emphasize their inclusion as a

variety of eist.

Skeleton

The categories under this heading are straightforward and simply

follow what has already been explained in the text (chapters 4, 5, 6 & 7).
For multiple burials, skeletons are distinguished by the letters, a, b, c,

etc. The methods used to age skeletons are not precise and should only be

used as a rough guide. The age groups are distinguished as follows I

1) infants - less than 2;

2) children - 2 to 12;

3) youths - 12 to 17;

4) young adults - 18 to 25.

5) adults - 25 to 40;

6) old adults - over 40.

It should also be pointed out that the number of interred and their age and

sex for the Altun Ha sample are based on the lab analysis and not upon the
 350

on site estimation.

Grave Furniture

This category refers to the approximate number of grave goods for each

burial, and is separated into the sub-headings of pottery and stuccoed

vessels, jade, shell, flint/obsidian, and other. The number of grave goods

should only be considered as approximate for some burials because the pre-

cise number of a specific type of grave good was not always provided by

the original excavators. This particularly applies to the very well fur-

nished temple and household shrine burials. In such instances, it was

merely stated that, for example, jade was present, jade beads or shell

beads were present, hundreds of jade beads, flint blades, etc., were

present, or a many beaded bracelet, anklet, necklace or collar was present.

Such approximation does not really occur for non-temple burials because

there was simply far less furniture, and every bead or fragment was counted.

One aspect of the grave goods that is not indicated in the tables (nor

discussed in the text) is the position of grave goods. This is because the

positions were not always indicated in the excavation reports, and position

may not always have been important or meaningful (though it probably was in

some instances, e.g. bowl over skull, shell over skull, jade bead in mouth

and stingray spine by pelvis). Jade beads and shell beads were usually

found in positions consistent with them having been worn as necklaces,

collars, bracelets and anklets. The location of pots in graves was not

consistent so I suggest space availability or the whim of the burial party

primarily influenced where pots were placed in graves. The following, how-

ever, should be noted:

1) Bome of the best furnished burials contained goods that had been placed

in wall niches, or in caches immediately adjacent to, below, or atop the

grave,
 351

2) pots frequently contained items of furniture, e.g. jade or shell beads

and/or flint or obsidian blades, and unanalysed organic remains;

3) stingray spines were usually placed by the pelvis of the deceased;

4) jade beads were sometimes found in positions consistent with them having

been placed in the mouth.

The position of stingray spines may be meaningful. Some art and

iconography depict male individuals, usually Maya lords, mutilating their

virile member with stingray spines (Schele & Miller 1986). Placing a

stingray spine by the pelvis of the deceased may indicate that the person

had practised this bloodletting during life and would continue to practise

it in the hereafter (see Table 100).

The placing of a jade bead in the mouth of the deceased was a common

Pan Mesoamerican custom (Ruz 1968: 162 & 166). It has also been written

about in the ethnohistoric literature. Landa informs us that it was cus-

tomary in o~uer to provide the deceased with money - jade beads could be

used as currency - to buy food in the afterworld (Tozzer 1941: 130). It

seems the custom is of some antiquity probably for the same reason. Per-

haps the organic residues in pots were food left for the very same purpose.

ILLUSTRATIONS OF GRAVE TYPES AND VARIETIES

 Appendix 11: Illustrations of Grave Types and Varieties

The followine figures are of most of the grave varieties as described

and defined in my classification scheme (chapter 2). Three varieties are

not illustrated: unspecified crypt, unspecified tomb and rock-cut tomb.

The unspecified crypt and tomb varieties are not illustrated because of the

obvious reason that the categories only exist on account of inadequate

description. A rock-cut tomb is not illustrated simply because it has

effectively the same appearance (ideally) as a stone lined tomb.

One grave type, chultun, is not illustrated either. This is simply

because readers should be familiar with what chultuns are and because

chultuns do not necessarily have one form or dimension.

The figures are as follows:

ADDITIONAL BURIALS NOT IN THE ANALYSIS

 Appendix Ill: Additional Burials Not in the Analysis

The following is a list of burials which have recently been published

but not included in the analysis. The same sort of data is provided as

listed in the tables of Appendix I. A brief comment is added for each

burial if there is some noteworthy aspect about it or there is some feature

in common with important aspects discussed in the text, e.g. evidence for

sacrifice, the extent of the furnishings, etc.

I: Komchen, Dzibilchaltun (Merida Museum)

Burial No. - ?

Location & Context - ?

Grave Type - uncapped cist

Body & Position - extended, supine; adult

Head Orientation - ?

Grave Furniture - 7 pots of various forms; 1 plate was over skull

Date - ?

11: Coba (Benavides 1981: 98-99 & Fig. 45)

Burial No. - ?

Location & Context - beneath a plaza altar in front of Stela 27

Grave Type - uncapped cist (but possibly a simple crypt)

Body & Position - uncertain, but possibly flexed or secondary

Head Orientation - ?

Grave Furniture - none visible

Date - ?

Comment - Its proximity to Stela 27 and placement below an altar suggests

this was a dedicatory cache burial.

 458

Ill: Colha (Hester, Eaton & Shafer 1980: 77, 119-20, 163-72 & 179-80)

Burial No. - 2003-1

Location & Context - Str. III (residence)

Grave Type - pit; 1:2

Burial No. - 2008-3

Location & Context - housemound

Grave Type - simple; 1:1

Body & Position - fragmentary

Head Orientation - ?

Grave Furniture - none

Date - Late Classic

Burial No. 2008-2

Location & Context - housemound

Grave Type - simple pit; 1:2

Body & Position - mandible & femurs only, but disturbed

Head Orientation - ?

Grave Furniture - none

Date - Late Classic

Comment - Though the burial is disturbed, the presence of just a mandible

and femur suggests this individual was sacrificed.

Burial No. - 2008-4

Location & Context - housemound

Grave Type - simple pit; 1:2

Body & Position - extended; young adult male

Head Orientation - ?

Grave Furniture - none

 460

Date - Late Classic

Comment - This burial was in the same pit as 2008-2. The fact that they

were together suggests the two should be considered as a multiple burial,

perhaps of a primary interment accompanied by a sacrificial victim. The

lack of furniture would be unusual for such a combination, however.

Burial No. - 2008-5

Location & Context - housemound

Grave Type - simple; 1:1

Body & Position - fragmentary

Head Orientation - ?

Grave Furniture - 1 poly bowl

Date - Late Classic

Burial No. - 2011-1

Location & Context - south side of main ceremonial plaza in front of a temple

or ceremonial platform

Grave Type - large simple pit; 1:2

Body & Position - 2 layers of severed skulls (27) and mandibles only (3);

the 30 individuals consisted of 9 children, 3 youths, 17 adults and 1 old

adult; at least 7 were male and 8 were female.

Grave Furniture - a shell, numerous large sherds and numerous chert flakes

~ - Terminal Classic

Comment - The pit was covered by a considerable amount of burnt masonry.

It is suggested that perhaps the skulls represent members of the elite who

were killed and the ceremonial structure then intentionally destroyed as

part of mass destruction at the site. The act may have contributed to the

collapse of the site in the Terminal Classic. This is possible but I

believe there is a much better explanation. The fact that the pit was very
 461

well constructed suggests it was done to prevent the skulls from being

damaged. They succeeded, but such efforts to prevent destruction of the

skulls does not suggest simple killing to me. Sacrifice is more likely,

though this would be the first instance of a burial of a mass sacrifice

of a mixed age group and sex. I suggest this burial may be indicative of

a sacrifice of captive warriors, slave women and their children after some

successful raid, battle, designation of an heir or coronation. The exten-

sive amounts of burnt masonry could be the remains of the ritual cele-

brations after the mass sacrifice. In other words, this burial may be the

result of the sort of act depicted on the murals of Bonampak.

Burial No. - 2012-1

Location & Context - uncertain, but possible household shrine

Grave Type - simple pit; 1:2

Body & Position - a: seated adult

b+: fragmentary

Grave Furniture - 6 vessels and fragments of others

Date - Late Classic

Comment - There is the possibility that this grave had been reused. The

fragmentary remains of human bones and sherds may be from a previous inter-

ment.

Burial No. 2012-2

Location & Context - uncertain, but possible household shrine

Grave Type - ?

Body & Position - several disarticulated skeletons; secondary

Grave Furniture - 1 vessel

Date - Late Classic

Comment - The obvious disarticulation implies sacrifice.

Comment - The meagre amounts of furniture in these 3 graves would suggest

that str. 138 was not a household shrine. It otherwise fits the Plaza Plan

B arrangement.

quently, these burials are enumerated by the operation number of the ex-

Comment - There were 3 other suspected skull only burials in this mound.

Each had stones placed haphazardly over the skulls in the shape of a cairn.

I suspect these were sacrifices of some kind, either individually or as a

mass sacrifice.

Comment - There is nothing unusual about these. These latter burials

would suggest the mounds were nothing more than residential. The skull
 471

burials might suggest a ceremonial purpose.

Nine skeletons had their head orientation discerned: 5 were head to ~,

3 head to N & 1 head to west. The prevalence of head to E is similar to

Dzibilchaltun, and the residential prevalence at Altun Ha. The presence of

some head to N brings a similarity with Uaxacttin and Tikal. The sample is

exasperatingly small.

V: Quirigua (Sharer 1978: 51; Sharer et al. 1979: 59; Jones & Sharer 1980: 16)

Despite extensive excavation at this site, only 2 burials were found.

These are as follows:

Burial No. - 2C-3/1

Location & Context Str. 2C-3; though located on the east side of a resi-

dential plaza, the excavators suggest it was a residence.

Grave Type - simple pit; I:2

Body & Position - extended, supine; adult female

Head Orientation - head to E

Grave Furniture - I celt and 6 copper discs

Date - Terminal Classic/Early Postclassic

Burial No. - IB-6/1

Location & Context - Str. lB-6; a probable household shrine on the eastern

perimeter of a court of the Main Acropolis.

Grave Type - simple crypt with benches along sides

Body & Position - extended, supine; adult

Head Orientation - head to N

Grave Furniture - 2 vases & 1 bowl

Date - ca. A.D. 600
VI: Xunantunich (Bengue Viejo) (MacKie 1985: 69, 75-77, 84-87 & 176-79)

The remains of at least 5 burials were found in one building, Str.

A-15, a fairly substantial residence. The burials are as follows:

Burial No. - A-IS/l

Location & Context - in topsoil above Room 2 of Str. A-15, a large resi-

dence

Grave Type - simple

Body & Position - infant; fragmentary

Grave Furniture - none

Date - Benque Viejo IV or later, i.e. Postclassic

Burial No. - A-1S/2

Location & Context - below floor of Room 1, Str. A-1S

Grave Type - simple

Body & Position - extended, prone; child

Head Orientation - head to S

Grave Furniture - none

Date - Benque Viejo IIIb

Burial No. - A-15/3

Looation & Context - in benoh of Room 2, Str. A-15

Grave Type - extended, prone; child; no traoe of cranium, but all other

bones artioulated.

Head Orientation -head to S

Grave Furniture - 3 jade beads & 1 jade disc

Date - Benque Viejo IIIb

Comment - see Burial 4 below

 473

Burial No. - A-lS/4

Location & Context - in bench below Buial 3 and disturbed by it

Grave Type - simple

Body & Position - extended, prone; adult; cranium missing

Head Orientation - head to S

Grave Furniture - 3 animal teeth and 1 jade disc

Date - Benque Viejo IIIb

Comment - At first glance, the missing crania of Burials A-l5/3 & 4 may

thought to be the result of disturbance. Burial 4 certainly was disturbed

by the placing of Burial 3, since the mandible, axis and right clavicle of

the adult were lying on top of the child. But the cranium of the adult was

definitely not present, nor was the child's. Therefore, intentional

removal seems more likely. Does this mean these 2 individuals were sacri-

ficed as MacKie suggests (MacKie 1985: 87)? It would seem logical and

these examples could fit with some other examples of dedicatory cache

burials (Table 103). However, there is a far better argument for this

state of affairs to which, in fact, MacKie alludes (ibid.: 86), but does

not quite jump in. The missing crania in this instance are indicative of

ancestor worship and were retained as idols by the descendents. Why do I

believe this? There are 3 reasons: 1) Placed in front of the bench con-

taining the 2 burials was a small disc shaped limestone altar. 2) The

removal of the crania would fit with Landa's descriptions of the removal

of the skulls of ancestors to be retained for worship. 3) MacKie found

pieces of human cranial bone in deposits of Room 2 and the midden that may

belong to the missing crania (ibid.: 87). Therefore, I suggest that ances-

tor worship was practised at the altar in front of this bench, specifically

of the individuals buried in it and with their removed crania. Moreover,

MacKie's suggestion that the adult cranium was placed in the upper niche

of the rear wall for safe keeping (ibid.) is probably dead right.

Burial No. - A-15/5

Location & Context - in topsoil above Str. A-15

Grave Type - simple

Body & Position - fragmentary; possibly adult female

Grave Furniture - none

Date - postabandonment of structure; Postclassic

General Comment - The 3 individuals whose head orientation and body position

were discerned were all extended prone with head to the south. This com-

plies exactly with the prevailing position and orientation of the deceased

at nearby Baking Pot and Barton Ramie, and the orientation complies with

2/3 of Thompson's (1940) Benque Viejo burials (Table IV, Appendix I). The

extended prone position with head to south certainly does seem to be the

regional convention.

VII: Tikal (Haviland 1985: 123-153)

The publication of Tikal Reports 19 provides data on 31 burials

from Groups 4F-l and 4F-2. The burials are as follows:

Burial No. - 11
Looation & Context - Str. 4F-43; residence or domestic ancillary

Grave Type - simple

Body & Position - a: old adult male was extended supine

b: severed skull

Head Orientation - a: head to N

Grave Furniture - none

Date - Ik phase, oa. A.D. 600-700

Comment - This may be an instance of the sacrifice of Sk. b to accompany

Sk. a. Unlike our usually well furnished examples, however (Table 102),

this was unfurnished and therefore, atypical.

 477

Date - Ik-Irnix transition; i.e. A.D. 700

Comment - It is possible that the severed skull of Burial 12 is actually

part of this burial. This would then be another instance of a sacrifial

victim accompanying a primary interment. At least in this instance there

is some grave furniture.

Comment - Haviland (1985: 135) argues this burial had been located under

a small shrine (household shrine). The wealth of the burial would support

such a suggestion and the building may have been constructed as a memorial

to this interment.

Comment - Haviland suggests that each building modification of Str. 4F-7 was

associated with a burial (Burials 39-42) (Haviland 1985: 137-39). If this

is true, do these modifications amount to memorials to the deceased? If so,

does this imply ancestor worship among the common population here?

Grave Furniture - none

Date - Classic Period

General Comment - The prevalence of head orientation to the north for Tikal

deceased persists with this Group 4F-l and 4F-2 sample. Of the 28 skele-

tons whose head orientation was discerned, 18 head to north and 19 in a

northerly direction. This equates to 64% and 68%, respectively, about the

same proportion as exists with our Tikal sample (Table 112). The prevalence

of bowl under skull as opposed to bowl over skull also persists with this

sample. The 5 in this sample may be added to the 9/13 in our sample (Table
35).
