dc.description | Description: Moderately well preserved, collapsed to south; only partially cleared; located in a gentle southward slope just north of the steep river bank; no superstructure visible; between first visit in 2007 and second visit in 2009, the northeastern corner and doorway were dug down to floor level. The tomb chamber (n-s 3.10 m, e-w 2.66 m) is cleared to within 1.30 m of the vault in most areas and to 2.45 in the area of the doorway. The walls and vault are built of well-finished petit appareil blocks; the two are not bonded, however, and the space between the end walls and the vault is simply packed with river stones. There is a poorly preserved niche in the collapsed south wall (W: 0.45, D: 0.35), and the doorway (W: 0.66 m) in the north wall (Th: 0.59 m) is slightly off center to the west; the relatively thin schist lintel is now cracked. The walls of the dromos are constructed of unfinished stones, and it is roofed with overlapping schist slabs that step upward to the north. | en_US |
