Actual burials...More than one, for sure. ''Many'' is the only answer, since there are arguments as to whether some finds are actual burials, or whether the remains represent one of our ancestors who just crawled away to die. The presence of ''grave goods'' is usually taken as an indicator, but the lack of these can still give an inconclusive result . Have a read of this.
