Tomb III is very unique structure. The tomb’s large size is unusual for mortuary monuments of the early 3rd millennium B.C. The internal perimeter wall, at its preserved height of 1.4 meters, shows no evidence of corbelling inwards. Although there are no close parallels, one may liken it to the Jabal Hafit cairns.
