In the rescue excavation for the "cube grave" found in the construction of a villa in Yalova's Termal district, a second grave belonging to a baby was discovered.

The team headed by Yalova Museum Director Ali Sinan Ozbey reached the second cube grave with a baby skeleton right next to the woman's grave, which is considered to be from the Late Roman period dating back to the 3rd to 4th centuries. It was learned that no objects were recovered from both graves. The teams opened this grave in the excavation work carried out meticulously, removed the baby skeleton inside, and took it to the Yalova Museum Directorate.
