3.41km southeast (bearing 142°) of Mets Mantash village, Ma BC 16 is located at the far northern end of Ma BC 15 (map quad B1f).
Like Ma BC 15, this cluster of cist burials is set on a steep west facing slope pockmarked with eroded outcrops of bedrock.
Running north-south, parallel to a large bedrock outcrop to the east, this cluster of burials is marked by highly discrete tomb constructions. The large field of burial installations features a large number of cist burials separated by an average of 3-4m. Bedrock outcrops make it impossible to provide an accurate estimate of how many burials are present, but they extend across a wide band along the slope of the hill approximately 100m north-south and 15m east-west. The burials appear to be quite discrete, clustering in groups of two or three.
No surface materials.
