[(4) South of G 4611 (continued)]
If any reason is found for tracing the causeway between the Great Wall and G 4710, then G 4811, G 4714 would be later than the causeway.
II. [ILLUSTRATION]
III. [ILLUSTRATION]
In this case complex G 4810, G 4714, G 4712, G 4611, etc. are later than G 5320. There is with the present information a third alternative. At * older walls appear to have been cut down to a level compatible with theory II. or III. At + a mastaba appears cut away except for stela. I favor theory I at present. The road according to II or III leads to the deep quarry west of cemetery 4000.
