The intervention in this burial space commissioned and financed by the Cabildo de Gran Canaria revealed the existence of at least three pits dug into the land in which so many other individuals were deposited. These are the skeletal remains of three male adults whose age of death we can place it no beyond 25 years in two of them and between 25-35 in another. The funeral treatment was relatively similar in all three cases, deposited inside the pits in an extended supine position and perhaps wrapped in some kind of bale or shroud, whose remains were preserved although very precariously under the thoracic area of one of the individuals. The sepulchral assembly, which may be larger than the excavated space, was marked by a set of stones located above the filling of the pits.
