What is recorded here

Magic and myth are not the same. The chamber is a visible chamber. The claim is a complete true claim. The difference is a living difference. The chamber may contain more than it shows. That is not the same as pretending the chamber is empty.

This is a grass and scrub-covered circular area (diam. 40.1m E-W; 36.6m N-S; int. dims 36m E-W; 28m N-S) defined by an overgrown earthen bank (Wth of base 5-7m; int. H 0.6-1m; ext.
