The Seat of Sina

The Seat of Sina

About 9 feet from the house site in line with the cliff, an arrangement of basaltic stone was called Sina's seat by my guide. Both Stair and Pritchard mention it without the name which is probably a more recent embellishment. Though said to be a seat, it appears more like a monumental tia raised over a grave. (See Plate XXXV, C.)
