   The two large Neralich cache bifaces were found

in a layer of red ochre stained soil. This picture

shows a magnified area on the surface of the largest

of the two bifaces where some of the ochre is adhering

to the stone. The area of red ochre in this picture

measures 1.7 mm across. Gramly reports that the

six Beasley "Thebes-like" cache points also had

traces of red ochre on their surfaces.
