Description
An unspecified cave entrance (unidentified shape, unidentified dimensions, unidentified orientation, unidentified characteristics) was said to give access to an unspecified cave (Kharpran Daly, B D 2014.01.11 Mss).

It seems to be not a specific cave name but rather a -krem- or cave called after its location in a certain forest specified by -Am- (note 2). SITUATION: In an unidentified setting and at an unidentified location somewhere in the vicinity of the village of Kharkhana (note 3).An unspecified cave entrance (unidentified shape, unidentified dimensions, unidentified orientation, unidentified characteristics) was said to give access to an unspecified cave (Kharpran Daly, B D 2014.01.11 Mss).
