  • Remarks
    Arbitrary designation for a cluster of shafts at the northeastern end of G 4840, north of S 984, between east wall of G 4840 and west wall of G 4950. Includes an uncertain number of shafts, some of which are shown but not labeled on plans EG019920 and EG019921, and which may include some or all of the "missing" shafts 1030-1037. Of these shafts, S 1031 and S 1032 are labeled on photo AEOS_I_5893 (note: the distribution of shafts on the plans seems somewhat different to what is shown in the photo).
