Solution

The objects found in graves are usually different. Some skeletons were buried with a great number of pots, while some with just a few of them. Archaeologists have thus concluded that people were buried with objects depending upon their status. For example, a rich lady might be buried with jewellery and precious items like combs. On the other hand a poor lady might be buried with simple pot.
