HARVARD AFRICAN STUDIES
Plan XXI, K X, SE quarter, interior.
Grave: a large hole apparently made in part by plunderers and seeming to contain at
each end a small grave; 440 X 275 cm. and 100 cm. deep; orientation of the
small graves, ca. 5° north of east.
Burial: completely cleared out of southern small grave; the northern grave, the larger,
contains both human and ram bones.
Ram — on left side, head south, in western bed-trench.
Objects: 1-4, displaced in northern hole; rest in debris.
1. Bulging jar with short neck, W. S. R. XVI-2; 14-2-1115.
2. Large wide pot, Bkt. XXII-7; 14-2-1116.
3. Beads, preserved in part on original thread; gives the order a, b, a, c, a, c,
etc.; 14-2-1117.
a. 8 thick disc-beads, white-speckled dark stone; diam., 9-10 mm.; thick-
ness, 4-5 mm.
b. 2 thick disc-beads, red jasper; same size.
c. 10 smaller disc-beads, red jasper; diam., 7+ mm.; thickness, 3 mm.
d. 2 short cylinder-beads, white stone; 9 and 6x7 mm.
e. Few small blue ring-beads.
4. Kohl-pot, alabaster, shoulder form; Stone Vessels, Type V-3, 29; 14-2-1118,
vol. VI, p. 64. >
i. Few small blue ring-beads; 14-2-1119.
ii. Bone awls; 14-2-1120.
iii. Fragments of ostrich-feather fan; 14-2-1121.
iv. Beaker, Bkt. 1-3; 14-2-1122.
v. Twelve smashed beakers, Bkt. II-2 (three); Ill-gen. (five); V-5; VIII-3;
and two indeterminable; 14-2-1123 to 1134.
On the surface around K 1078:
vi. Many fragments of granite statuettes; 14-2-1135, 1136.
Plan XXI, K X, SE quarter, first row. (Fig. 128.)
Grave: rounded rectangular, 220 X 120 cm., and 120 cm. deep; orient., 25° north of
east; bed-trenches at each end.
Burial: bed-burial with at least one sacrificial body.
Body A — skull in debris.
Body B — face down in western bed-trench, arms crossed under breast, with feet in
the air; not in original place, I think, but coherent.
Objects: 1-5, displaced in NE corner; 6-9 in western bed-trench.
1. Small jar, R. P. VI-2; 14-3-1027.
+2. Beaker, Bkt. HI-15; 14-3-1028.
