IGN62

Tomb IGN62 is situated on the western slope of the smaller massif in sector II of the Khuraymat necropolis. The tomb lacks any decorative facade elements and is located in an area of the massif that is heavily eroded, with significant exfoliation and scaling, particularly above the opening due to water flow and wind action.
