The next grave was within a yard, and at the feet, of the last mentioned. The skeleton lay also with its feet to the south-west, that is, nearly parallel to the road. On the right side of the skull was a small urn of a lightish red earth [M 6826]; it is three inches and a half high, three inches and a quarter diameter, and holds about half a pint. Another small urn of blackish earth, which came to pieces in removing; and a patera of fine red earth, like those already described. The name SATVRNINI was impressed on its bottom, on the inside; and a x was made with a sharp pointed instrument, in two places, on its bottom. Here were plain signs of a burnt coffin, and six long nails.
