Description

Looking down into a rock-cut tomb chamber whose floor of compacted earth has been partly cleared. About a dozen small vessels, including juglets and bowls, lie scattered across the floor, several of them grouped on and beside a block of stone at the right. The chamber walls are cut into rough, pale rock, and loose soil and stones lie in the foreground at the edge of the cutting.
