According to preliminary deductions, would have no more than 13 years and the position of lying could be a Christian.
In a press release said the Visigoth Toletum team has found a brass ring of late antiquity in which you can see the image of a trim young man with his head. Possibly could be coated with gold and have belonged to a nobleman of the time. They also found
marble inscription on both sides, and, though yet to determine the legend of enrollment, is singular that this piece of marble has words carved on both sides. "Probably because they could be reused in alternate generations, and could be part of a sarcophagus," they said.
The team has also found a column and a small marble capitals, their characteristics and scrolls belong no doubt, Visigoths. The scale could be part of the ornament of the windows of a building relevant Royal City. Parts similar to these were reused after the invasion of the eighth century, the construction of the great Toledo, they said.
