Rectangular cutting with remains of charred human bones and both burned and unburned pottery fragments. Bones discarded.
Rectangular trench cut through earth into bedrock, oriented east-west ... Middle Geometric I ... Rectangular trench cut through earth into bedrock, oriented east-west and measuring 1.10m long, 0.70m wide and under 0.30m deep. ... According to the excavator, cremated skull fragments were encountered at the east end of the trench, leg bones near the west end. Burned and unburned sherds representing at least nine vessels were found throughout the trench. The inclusion of the fragmentary cooking pot or chytra led Smithson to suggest that the deceased was a woman. |

It consisted of a rectangular trench cut through hard-packed fill and slightly into bedrock to a depth of 0.48m. the trench oriented east-west, had a preserved length of 0.70m and a width of 0.60m. ... The preserved east end, built up from redeposited green schist bedrock streaked with reddened earth, may have been a barrier between the destroyed urn-hole and the pyre trench, constructed after the fire had subsided. |

| Homer A. Thompson ... Cremation burial (trench-and-hole) under S. edge of E-W Street, southern burial. In some records as Grave XLVI.
Neat trench, rectangular as preserved, but may have originally been square, cut partly through ... Early Geometric I ... Cremation burial (trench-and-hole) under S. edge of E-W Street, southern burial. ... As preserved, the trench measured ca. 1.05x 0.60m, and was presumably oriented east-west, but as the north side was destroyed it is possible that the trench extended toward the north and may, therefore, have had a north-south orientation. ... The floor of the trench was not as heavily burned as that of other related cremation tombs, though there was within it,particularly toward the west, a thick deposit of ash, charcoal, and burned sherds, representing pyre debris. |
| Dorothy Burr Thompson ... Grave 2. Urn cremation (trench-and-hole). In some records as XXIII.
Variously labeled as grid 7/Δ, 7/Γ and 7/Γ-Δ.
Rectangular pyre trench cut through earth into bedrock, with only the lowest 0.04m surviving ... Transitional Late Protogeometric/Early Geometric I ... Urn cremation (trench-and-hole). In some records as XXIII.
... The exact orientation of the trench has not noted in the field, but it appears to have been roughly oriented east to west (or east-southeast to west-northwest). ... The urn-hole was located at the east end of the pyre trench; its diameter and depth were not recorded, but judging from the cover stones the pit probably measured just under 0.50m in diameter and was about 0.35m deep. |

JP
Roughly circular pit measuring 0.39m in diameter cut into bedrock to a depth of 0.72m. Pyre refuse-described as "ashes and cinders etc"- was encountered throughout the tomb pit, below, around and above the urn. although there is no specific mention of a trench, Young's description of the tomb suggests that a rectangular trench, with a maximum length of about 0.80m and a preserved width of ca. 0.60m, was cut through earth into bedrock. consequently, the tomb appears to be a classic example of an Athenian trench-and-hole, oriented east-west,with the urn-hole at the east. |

Tomb located about 2m west/west-southwest of the EG1 child inhumation, beneath the restored line of a hypothetical wall connecting the western "apse' and the south wall of the Geometric House. ... Oriented more or less to the points of the compass, the trench measured about 0.80m (east-west) by about 0.70m (north-south). ... Remnants of a stone packing over the trench survived on the west side and for a short distance along the north.
