Summary

Description
English: A Badarian Burial

From about 4500 - 3850 BC, Stone Age (Neolithic) communities in the Badari region buried their dead in graves lined with reed mats on which bodies were placed in a crouched position and surrounded by pottery vessels, siltstone palettes and bone tools.

These are objects from grave 5710 at Badaria, an undisturbed burial of a child about 10 years of age, including;

A black-topped brown ware pot with diagonal rippling and burnishing was found at the southern end of the grave (AN1925.519)

A bead necklace with carnelian, 29 steatite, and shell beads. The string ran from the child's neck to the wrists. (AN1925.522)

A rectangular siltstone palette (AN1925.520)

A spoon of hippopotamus ivory (AN1925.521)
