Excavation at the Cova des Pas prehistoric site
Excavation at the Cova des Pas prehistoric site. Researcher excavating the skeleton of an adult at the Cova des Pas prehistoric site. The skeleton is in the foetal position characteristic of these burials. This cave is located in a ravine near Ferreries on the Mediterranean island of Menorca, Spain. It was used as a burial site by the pre-Talaiotic and Talaiotic cultures. Around 100 burials have been found here, including 70 nearly complete skeletons, with preservation of organic matter and soft tissues. The burials date from between 1200 and 800 BC. The small cave (about four square metres in area) lies at the end of a narrow passageway. The site was discovered in 2005, with researchers carrying out excavations and laboratory analysis of their findings. Photographed in 2005.
