Photograph

English, translated from the French record

Detail view to the south of stratigraphic unit S20-13 being excavated in Sondage 20 at the Mound, 2019 season: emptying the lower layer of locus 924, a pit or trench filled with stones and fragments of gypsum and plaster. The photo shows the lower layer of very burnt stones, above which lies a very compact layer of earth.
