Tomb no. 25 is roughly contemporary to tombs nos. 33 and 34, that is to say, of Gjerstad's White Painted I.
Tomb no. 26a and b
Dromos: 1. 2.80; w. 0.70-1.10; d. 2.65. This dromos was a rectangular pit, with perpendicular sides and no steps. There was a tomb chamber at each of the narrow ends of the dromos. That the two have some connection is indicated by the fact that parts of the tripod were found in both chambers. According to the stratigraphical evidence tomb 26a was closed before 26b, but the difference in time may be very slight.
Chamber, Tomb 26a: 2.40 x 1.90; roughly oval in shape.
One burial; one skeleton
