Location
A rough scramble along the base of the cliffs 400 m north of Tham Nam Lang. The main entrance is 20 m up the vertical cliff face and clearly visible from a distance, but cannot be entered. A steep rocky gully to the south leads to an inconspicuous side entrance window less than 1 m in diameter.
Description
A short 3 m high by 4 m wide passage has one coffin and some timber fragments. The coffin is 4 m long and in good condition, complete with its lid and support columns. An archaeological survey in 1999 found glass beads and 1,724 fragments of pottery associated with this one coffin.
