An unspecified cave entrance (unidentified shape, unidentified dimensions, unidentified orientation, unidentified characteristics) is said to give access to a kind of cave. ETYMOLOGY: The recorded cave name Krem Liew Awiang or Krem Liaw Awiang (Zawada, W M in: Kharpran Daly, B D 2012.12.31 email SCAN 31122012) is probably rather a case of a -thliew- (note 1) combined with something along the lines of Awiang or so (note 2). W. M. Zawada was led to believe that -Krem Liew Awiang- translates as Cave of Faul Smell (note 3) or foul smell (note 4). SITUATION: The entrance to this cave is said to be located about 1.9 Kms [in a direct line or 3 km to 4 km on foot] West of Amarsang [note 5] (Zawada, W M 2012 diary page 11 headed Dec 13/14 in: Kharpran Daly, B D 2012.12.31 email -SCAN 31122012- scan 0005.tif).An unspecified cave entrance (unidentified shape, unidentified dimensions, unidentified orientation, unidentified characteristics) is said to give access to a kind of cave.
