Description
Summary:The cemetery found by P. Bar-Adon, north of Murabba'at, is studied by the Authors. Among the twenty graves, two have been checked, and their skeletons analysed. One can think of a similarity with the cemeteries of Qumran and Ein el-Ghuweir. They could be graves of ancient nomads, as well as of groups close to the Essenes. P. Bar-Adon avait repéré un cimetière, au nord de Murabba'at, examiné par les Auteurs. Parmi la vingtaine de tombes, deux ont été fouillées, et leurs ossements analysés. La parenté avec les cimetières de Qumrân et de Aïn el-Ghuweir est à retenir. Il peut s'agir de tombes de nomades anciens, mais aussi de groupes proches des Ésséniens.
