One of the mass graves discovered in an excavation from July–August of 2014 at Estépar (Burgos). Dating from the start of the Spanish Civil War, the grave contains twenty-six republicans who were killed by nationalists in August-September 1936, possibly released prisoners on September 29 and 30, 1936 and part of a purge of 2500 executions in the area.
