Figure 5. Grid <strong>of</strong> long bones under<br />

the deposit <strong>of</strong> disarticul<strong>at</strong>ed human<br />

bones<br />

All <strong>of</strong> the pottery and other finds are being studied as a unit because<br />

they constitute a single deposit in the cave with numerous joins between the<br />

sherds and bones uncovered during both campaigns. <strong>The</strong>se joins between<br />

fragments found in different levels and in different rooms help demonstr<strong>at</strong>e<br />

th<strong>at</strong> the m<strong>at</strong>erial was mixed before it was placed in the cavern. <strong>The</strong> study<br />

<strong>of</strong> the human bones and artifacts is not completed. Final public<strong>at</strong>ion is<br />

tent<strong>at</strong>ively planned in five volumes: I. <strong>The</strong> Topography, Geology, and Small<br />

Finds, II. <strong>The</strong> Pottery, III. Discussion and Interpret<strong>at</strong>ion, IV. <strong>The</strong> Human<br />

Remains, and V. <strong>The</strong> Faunal Remains.<br />
