Comment: This picture shows the area just to the south of Cave 1Q, which is in fact visible on the right, half way down. The dig team camp was located just to the south (left) of this picture, at the bottom of the slope where Cave 2Q (=GQ19) was found. It was published in DJD III, Pl. I:3, with a black arrow showing the placement of Cave 1Q and also forms part of a composite picture published in Humbert and Chambon (1994: 202-3, Fig. 415).
