The IGN107 tomb is situated in the Sanie necropolis, Sector II, on the eastern slope of the massif. The rock wall features dense horizontal stratifications and advanced erosion caused by rainwater percolation. The tomb consists of an unfinished burial chamber, with signs suggesting that it may have been intended to include a decorated facade.
