Description

A rock-cut tomb chamber seen during excavation. A rough rock ceiling overhangs a tall, pitted rock face on the right, with a rounded dark object lying against it. On the left, a stepped ledge leads back into darker space, and the floor is pale, dusty soil with another dark object at the lower left edge.
