Note: Ritual mud brick pits or holes dug at points of importance in Ancient Egyptian and Mesopotamian temples or tombs during their construction. Votive offerings were set under the foundation of monumental buildings, or nearby, perhaps to commemorate or sanctify these structures. These may also have been made to identify the craft of a tomb occupant.

Additional Notes:
Dutch ..... Rituele lemen holtes die werden gegraven onder belangrijke punten onder Oudegyptische tempels of tombes in aanbouw. Ze werden gevuld met ceremoniële objecten zoals amuletten, scarabeeën of voedsel en moesten het nieuwe gebouw beschermen. 
German ..... Rituelle Gruben oder Löcher aus Lehmziegeln, die an wichtigen Punkten in altägyptischen und mesopotamischen Tempeln oder Gräbern während deren Bau gegraben wurden. Votivgaben wurden unter dem Fundament von Monumentalbauten oder in deren Nähe niedergelegt, vielleicht um diesen Bauwerken zu gedenken oder sie zu heiligen. Möglicherweise dienten sie auch dazu, das Handwerk eines Grabbewohners zu identifizieren.
