Description

Pottery vessels and broken sherds lie on the soil floor of a tomb chamber, with the pale earthen walls rising behind them. A large jar with a short flared neck stands at the right, and a broken bowl and a deep vessel lie among the fragments on the left. Loose earth and smaller pieces of pottery cover the ground between them.
