Description
Tooley-1989 p. 97:
3. Pit 14. ROM NN(B). H.20.5 x W.41.5 x L.57.5 cms. Rectangular structure with steeply peaked corners (c. 32?). The door is slightly off centre. Steps to the left give access to the row of 5 open topped magazines (Naville 1913, 31; Arnold 1981, 27, tf.25a, d-e, 70).
[Note: "Pit 14" was the ka-sanctuary of Mentuhotep (Naville I, p 51) so presumably the granary was one of the "pieces of granaries" (Naville III p.31) found in the rubbish on the floor]
