SiteType: Burial cave. Powdered skeletal material was noticed on the side of a cliff beneath several very small caves. Upon examination, portion of two skeletons were found in a lava tube whose entrance was so cleverly sealed that the material would not have been discovered had there not been a hole into a lower cave larger than a man's head.No mortar had been used.
