Young Bones

Today (Wednesday) we were business as usual at the port of Sanitja.  Morning involved lots of bone cleaning.  I'm getting better at identifying bones, but it is very difficult because so many of them look similar.  During our break we walked to a local beach.  The excavations today were quite good.  We found the scapula (shoulder blade) of an infant.  It is in rather good condition.  I found two ribs of a young child today ( 2-3 yrs old).  Given the fact that there is such a range of ages (infant, child, adult) the tomb may be that of a family.  This is probably why there are so many bones and they are all disarticulated.

This is the infant scapula:

Here is are the child's ribs:
