Description

Interior view of a rock-cut tomb at Marion, looking along a passage with rough-cut walls of layered rock. A sandy, uneven floor runs forward from the foreground, and an opening on the right leads into a further cut space. The tomb walls show tool marks and crumbling soil, with a dark shadow cast across the left side.
