Event
Immediately close to event E25 in the centre of sector D subject S25, a male infans-juvenis, has left another two footprints – right (S25-6) and left (S25-7) that belong to another short trackway (Figs. 26 & 28). This time the footprints point into the direction of the Mesolithic entrance. Subject S25 again was pulling a stick, walked with the same slow speed, and carried no additional weight. The trace of the stick runs in a slight curve in eastern direction, which corresponds to the walking direction of subject S25. The trace of the stick is 58 cm long and 1.8 to 2.8 cm wide. Due to similar dimensions, it seems reasonable to assume that this spoor and that of event E25 come from one and the same stick.
