15. The total length of the gateway from the front of the outer part to the front of the inner part of the entrance hall was 87½ feet.
16. The guardrooms and recessed walls inside the gateway had small windows all around. The entrance hall also had windows all around on the inside. Pictures of palm trees were carved on the recessed walls.
17. Then the man brought me into the outer courtyard. I saw rooms there and pavement all around the courtyard. There were 30 rooms along the edge of the pavement.
18. The pavement in the lower courtyard ran alongside the gateways. It was as wide as it was long.
19. The man measured the distance from the inside of the lower gateway to the outside of the inner courtyard. It was 175 feet from east to north.
20. Then the man measured the length and width of the gateway, leading to the outer courtyard. This was the gateway that faced north.
21. Its three guardrooms, its recessed walls, and its entrance hall were the same size as those in the east gateway. The gateway was 87½ feet long and 44 feet wide.
22. Its windows, recessed walls, and palm tree pictures were the same size as those in the east gateway. Seven steps went up to it and led to its entrance hall.
23. The inner courtyard had a gateway opposite the north gate just like the east gateway. The man measured the distance from one gate to the other gate. It was 175 feet.
24. Then the man led me to the south side, and I saw a gateway that faced south. He measured its recessed walls and its entrance hall. They were the same size as those of the other gateways.
