25-3-39 of a partly collapsed tomb. A surface intrusion at the S. end seems not to have reached the tomb proper. Digging down through apparently undisturbed debris, we find sherds of a krater and two other L.H. III pots, and human bones. We cover these and start to open the tomb from above. This is Tomb no. 6( see p. 47 )

27-3-39 The donkey pit is part of the water system. Disturbed earth continues down. At a depth of we find the top of a a tunnel opening to the south. It may connect with the well in tr. 18. Deeply cut steps are in the sides. This may well be the British Museum Expedition's "Tomb 104: like a well, 20 ft. deep".
