45 (9/VI/40) other femur numerous ribs, those on right(?) side in best order, parts of upper & lower arms both sides, of vertebrae, a clavicle (?), part of a shoulder blade and large pieces of cranium spread out, 3 or 4 teeth together by neck. Just N of spine, level of shoulder, sizable piece of #77 carbon (nearly .04 long, near .015* in diam.)

NW child West of this skeleton, Achnas clearing another youth-size lies along N wall, head W. One sees part of leg bones, upper and lower, both sides, rather spread out and out of position, then part of pelvis, disappearing under the large bluish stone mentioned bottom of p. 40. S of the stone, parts of ribs and of right humerus (?). W of stone (which seems to rest on earth above the bones) is the bottom of one of these dimon- alabastra* and part of an odd ^{lamp #73} shallow bowl(?) of pottery. Beyond these, large quite well-preserved pieces of the shattered cranium. Some teeth preserved, exact place of finding not known by me. The fill over and among these

46 (9/VI/40) objects from the stone westward has been full of small stones, extending out beyond (S of) line of disappearof this torrent area from interior of our tomb (see above p. 41-2 etc. on "curious formation of walls). Here we are just under the break from the neighboring higher tomb which we have used as a step in and out. The stones might have fallen in when the ^partition partition between gave way. That was in the torrent area.

Between the lower legs of this skeleton, an object of uncertain use, made of iron; (and wood, as Christo points out) wood replaced by iron
