This bio-archaeological and conservation study aimed to analyze and expand our understanding ofthe aspects of ancient people death practices, lived in Sahab, Jordan through conductingresearch on human skeletal remains found buried in Jars. After moving one of the big jarsfrom the stores of Faculty of Archaeology and Anthropology  Yarmouk University of Jordaninto the laboratory, the materials were separated and laid down in a scientific manner. Sex,age, and stature were estimated and pathologies were investigated. Samples were taken inorder to monitor pH, and to conduct FTIR, XRD, and XRF. The materials were cleaned useddifferent types of standardized methods. After that, the skeletons were consolidated, andsome broken parts were brought together. In the last stage, the skeletons were coated as apreventive measure. Analysis conducted on these human skeletal remains showed that threehuman skeletons (one adult female, and a fetus (unknown sex), and an infant (unknown sex)were buried together in this jar. The preservation was very good as predicted by themonitored value of bone and soil samples pH with an average of 7.4. Different scenarios oftheir death and burial practices will be discussed.
