Description

A rough, textured wall of the tomb chamber rises behind a floor strewn with broken pottery sherds and whole vessels. Shallow bowls and a dish lie among the fragments, and a tall jug with ribbed sides and handles stands at the right edge. A large jar with a dark opening stands at the left edge, with more jars and bowls scattered across the lower right.
