This is only a decorative feature. A canal containing flowing water borders on one side of the compound. There is either a feeder canal which runs into the compound or there is a leakage/overflow into the compound from the aforementioned main canal. There is a wooden structure reminiscent of a plank-style barn which sits by itself and is surrounded by exposed ground. It is very dusty and hot, particularly near this structure. The other structure appears reminiscent of a large house. The eaves from the roof extend well past the walls of the house, almost to the ground. These eaves have a two-fold purpose: To help in cooling/providing shade and to act as a cover to hide activity. A walkway runs around the parimeter of the house, next to the wall, and is hidden from view by the overhanging eaves of the roof. Inside the house, there is a hallway that runs into a large, opulent room. From the hallway can be seen a large metallic symbol/sign which ig comprised of numerous small pieces, reminiscent of a mosaic (see sketch attached). This symbol is attached to a wall constructed of coarsed stone. This object is very important to the family or organization. It’s similar in function to a family crest or organizational symbol/trademark. One of three rooms which lead off to the right of the hallway contains a great deal of electronic/communication equipment. The symbol is also found stamped or printed on smaller objects or bundles which the family/organization in some way deals with. The symbol consists of a border on each side. This border is reminiscent of leafy branches or flowery stems. Within the upper central area is a sun or planet; a rendition of some sort of an astral sphere. exgupegueeeSTIPPLED NOFORN SPECIAL ACCESS REQUIRED Approved For Release 2001/03/07 : CIA-RDP96-00789R003600150003-4
