Tomb 422 at Lapithos Kastros during excavation

Description
A narrow trench cut into soil runs diagonally through the frame, with steep earthen sides and a large pale stone block lying in its upper part. Further back, a smaller stone rests against the top of the cut, and dark soil fills the floor of the trench. Roots show in the earth banks, and small stones lie on the surface at the lower left.
