19—29. These numbers were left for pieces which might be under 1—18 and were
never used.
On the floor of the main chamber were found:
30. Alabaster bowl, broken, Pl. 7ob.
31. Alabaster bowl, broken, Pl. 70b.

N. 3012. A small corbel with entrance on the south. Axis 430 east of south. An intact tomb.
See Pl. doc—e and fig. 145, 14b.
This corbel is rather peculiar in having a small
space inclosed by walls in front of the entrance.
The two sides and the north end are corbelled. The
make-weight on the north end was made of bricks
(south) wall is a straight wall | brick thick. The
walls inside are plastered: also the front and the in-
side of the walls in front of the entrance.
The doorway is roofed with a corbel (Pl. dod).
It was blocked with bricks when found; so the tomb
was intact.
The skeleton was contracted on the left side head
to the local east (Pl. doe). The left knee, being under-
neath, was drawn up nearer the chin than the right
knee. The body was probably wrapped in cloth of
which traces were found.
About the body, mainly in the front of the tomb
(Pl. doe), were the following objects:
1. 2. 6. Jar of red painted rough ware, type
3. Slate bowl, with a hole cut in the rim (a:
