Is it - True. - or - False. - that; at least one grave containing the remains of at least one person has been archaeologically / forensically / scientifically discovered within the boundary of the Sobibor camp - ??
Definitely true.
If it's any help, consider this debate from the perspective of a neutral observer. What or who is he likely to be convinced by? Person A, who claims that there is evidence of 180,000 people buried at Sobibor, or Person B, who claims that there are 0-10 persons buried there?
I fear Person A is probably more likely to be believed. Being shown any evidence of human remains will push the observer in that direction -- any evidence at all, whether it's a photo of gray soil, a textual description of decaying biological matter, or the common claim of bone fragments in the topsoil. That's it. That is in fact exactly how the narrative has been upheld over the last decade.
Therefore the more sensible approach is to point out that evidence of
any death is
not evidence of
murder, and evidence even of up to
tens of thousands of deaths is
not evidence of
180,000 murders, and also that the archaelogical claims that have been made do
not match those of the witnesses and historians. The person who takes this position is definitely more believable than Persons A and B. Indeed, it's exactly this kind of imperfect revisionism that has overwhelmed the exterminationist narratives for camps like Dachau, Buchenwald, and Belsen.
I think not enough has been done, to determine when cremations began and the burials stopped, which means that the mass graves could have been much smaller than so-called revisionists think. I also thought cremations started in early 1943, but now think it was months earlier, in 1942.

"In the summer of 1942, camp personnel deployed Jewish forced laborers from various locations in Lublin District to exhume the mass graves at Sobibor. They then ordered the forced laborers to burn the bodies on open-air “ovens” made from rail track. This measure aligned with the efforts of the Sonderkommando 1005"
Aktion 1005 started in June 1942. If cremations started in June 1942, that means, since Sobibor opened in May 1942, possibly only one month's transports, resulted in burials. There is evidence cremations started at TII in September 1942, and if that was also the case at Sobibor, then burials only took place for 5 months.
For all of the AR camps, if cremations started by September 1942, mean that the graves were much smaller than if it is assumed all people killed there, were buried.
Using this transport list, up to the end of September 1942, estimating 1000 arrived on the transports with no totals, then 75,000 people had arrived at the camp. It is entirelt possible, graves were only dug for 75,000, before the cremations started.
