Description

The photograph looks into a rock-cut tomb chamber from floor level, with a rounded, pitted rock ceiling above. Several dark, round-bodied vessels sit along the right side, partly lit by light from an opening at the upper right. Loose soil covers the floor in the foreground, and a dark plank-like object lies left of centre.
