4-5-39 "Tomb 21"

Tomb 21 lies in part under 21:24. Disturbed earth leads into it in a large area of on the S. side of 21:24. This actually seems to consist of two tombs, pierced from one into the other. The part under 21:24 was collapsed and filled with disturbed building refuse. The inner chamber is intact, and partly filled. Many archaic sherds and some bones are scattered over the surface. All parts appear thoroughly plundered.

14-10-41 This seems not to have been a tomb, at least in its latest stage, but rather to have served as a stable. Several hitching holes are cut into the rock walls of this very irregular cave. It was very much deeper than any tomb on Bamboula.
