Dauwâr

Two much ruined houses present entrances
of noteworthy interest; one is not unlike
others already noted, having a large single
stone shed but this shed covers a finely
ornamented lintel flanked on either side
by engaged twisted colonettes and on either
side a well carved symbolic disc.

The other house, just north east of the church
presents an arched entrance which
opens into a small vestibule upon which
opens the door up the house with its
ornamented lintel.

Parts of the town seem to have been rebuilt
in comparatively late times. For rough
stone walls rudely quadrated and laid in
clay are traceable in a number of places
so connected with the ancient work that there
can be no thought of their lateness. One is
built directly against an ornamented
pilaster, another includes a sarcophagus
standing on end, having served as a closet.
