Description	This Nefesh is an incised white limestone/sandstone block with an incised obelisk carved above a squared cut betyl block, which is removable. (The betyl block moved when touched, so the earth which held it in place was removed. Upon examination it could be seem that the betyl originally had been affixed into the square with white mortar, part of which we removed for sampling.) When the betyl was removed, it was found that the block had been completely carved through, and the betyl had been placed in a “window” of the block. Although it angle of the block was skewed, it was protected from collapse by the west wall bath entry where it could have been viewed by passers by. The terrace platform is bordered to its east with smoothed blocks measuring 0.25 m to 0.32 m in size. For safekeeping the Nefesh was removed from the site, and a reproduction will be carved by Dakhillallah Qublan to be placed in its original position.
