And the size of this tomb was also within a fairly normal range.
Comparing it to the circle he had drawn, Alka began doing a simple layout of where they were now.
The whole circular area they had just probed with a 1‑kilometer radius was clearly a bit too large.
The diameter of this circle should only be around 700 meters; counting in errors, at most 1 kilometer.
"This should be the tomb of someone powerful and influential. According to what's written here, a tomb of this sort should have proper passageways.
Because on some major festivals, the descendants would enter the tomb to perform rites."
As Alka spoke, he started from the circle he had just drawn and, using some classic tomb construction cases as reference, began a rough layout.
After a bit of planning, he fixed several points.
"We'll dig down from these points."
Alka felt these points should still be outside the tomb proper, but probably very close to it, making it easier to detect the edges of the tomb.
