A large cemetery was recorded north of the study area along the border of the Wallmannsthal farm. The site consists of a graveyard containing a large number of marked and unmarked graves (in excess of 100). Most of the graves have an east–west orientation with headstones placed on the western side. Where headstones do not occur, graves are demarcated by packed rocks. Burial offerings and grave dressing were recorded on several of the graves which confirm existing social ties to the graves. The cemetery is further linked to the Wallmannsthal community who resided in the area, the remains of which are evident in the landscape.
