Plan V, Sheet C, sect. E-h.
Tumulus: single-chamber type, without subsidiary graves; mound built of sand,
denuded and dark stone circle dispersed; diameter about 10 m.; height
of mound, now about 40 cm. above alluvium; in the debris, quartzite
disc, 23 cm. diameter and 8 cm. height.
Grave: rectangular, 290 X 150 cm. = area of 4.4 sq. m., sunk 150 cm. in the
alluvium; orient., 15° north of east.
Burial: completely cleared out.
Objects: a few potsherds, perhaps intrusive, in the debris of the pit.
1. Potsherds.
a. Bkt. Ill (as in K X).
b. Bkt. bowl.
c. Bkt. XXII-4; diameter mouth, ca. 40 cm.
Plan V, Sheet C, sect. DE-hi.
Tumulus: single-chamber tumulus without subsidiary graves; mound built of sand,
covered with white pebbles and outlined with a ring of dark stones, but
denuded and ring dispersed; diameter of mound as now discernible, ca.
10 m., originally as much as 14 m.; height of mound above alluvium,
50 cm. (originally higher); mud-brick chapel, on south, 12.4 m. from
edge of pit, 8 m. from edge of denuded mound, 6 m. from assumed edge;
small quartzite stone, 17 X 14 cm. and 8 cm. high.
Chapel: single cell with doorway (width, 105 cm.) on the south; inside, 476 X
476 cm.; outside, 596 X 596 cm.; thickness of walls, 60-62 cm., or one
and one-half bricks (32-33 X 18-19 X 9 cm.). The cell is built on the
ground which slopes to the east so that at the SE corner there are three
more courses than at the SW corner. Orientation of cross axis, 2° south
of east.
Grave: rectangular, 240 X 155 cm. = area of 3.7 sq. m., sunk 125 cm. in allu-
vium; orient., 12° south of east.
Burial: entirely cleared out.
Objects: south of the chapel lies the great deposit, K XXXIIIA (q. v.); in the
debris in the chapel a few potsherds of the same types as the deposit;
in the debris of the pit.
i. Potsherds — W. P. Grey, K .W., Blk. W., all of which are probably in-
trusive.
Plan V, Sheet C, sect. FG-de.
Tumulus: diam., 22-24 m., height above alluvium, 35 cm.
Grave: rectangular, 230 X 140 cm. = 3.2 sq.m., — 145 cm. (in alluvium); 5°
Nof E.
Objects: in the debris.
i. Beads: 19 ball-beads, amethyst; diam., 10-13 mm.; beautifully polished
dark blue amethyst; 14-3-774.
ii. Alabaster kohl-pot, Type V-l, with disc-lid; 14-2-836.
iii. Potsherds — Bkt. I and VI; Bkt. bowl; 14-2-837.
Plan IV, Sheet A, sect. KL-gh.
Tumulus: single-chamber type with two subsidiary burials; diameter of stone circle,
32.6 m.; height of mound above alluvium, 45 cm. (originally consider-
ably higher, probably over a meter); main chamber in NW quarter;
construction like K XXI.
