The clean place adjacent to the Red Heifer pit is by far the largest and most elaborate of all the Red Heifer clean places. The jars of ashes stored on the Mount of Olives remained in this clean place, while the other eight clean places were for the eight individual Red Heifers and normally the ashes of the individual Red Heifer were stored here for only a few days. In the middle of the clean places there was a place for the priest who watched.
