While the grave has several small pits, other graves are

While the grave has several small pits, other graves are clustered around the edges of the pits. In some of these, buried graves may have been carved out by the same group of people, which the researchers speculate may have been the descendants of the village's most recent and oldest members.

The graves at the center of the Lothagam North Pillar site are most likely those of three young children buried in the same grave between 2,300 and 4,000 years ago.

The researchers estimate that at least 500 to 600 people died at the grave site in a single day, the oldest in the region. They also suggest that at least 300 or more people were at the site during one day.

In order to determine the exact date of death, the team carried out a second survey of the graves. They collected detailed radiocarbon dating and computed the date of death using a radiocarbon bomb that measured the presence of the remains.

The results suggest that the graves at the center of the Lothagam North Pillar site were built to cope with the changing cultural climate. They also suggest that the graves at the center of the Lothagam North Pillar site may have been constructed to cope with the changing cultural environment.
