Thinking more about the teenage male's skeleton....it is entirely possible that he was the heir apparent as leader of this "tribe"...and thinking that women and children would be spared perhaps he was disguised as a woman/girl.
Alternatively...perhaps there were catamites in Iron-age society...but only one in the tribe...a tad unfair???
