Description

Looking down into a tomb chamber, several skeletons lie in the dark soil with skulls, ribs and long bones still in place. Around them are several pottery vessels: juglets and a jug with a spout on the left, and a bowl and a rounded dish to the right. Pale rock walls frame the top and right edges, and stones and rubble lie along the bottom.
