Description

A stepped cut in the ground runs across the frame, with its sides showing layers of soil. In the centre, a group of large rough stones sits in a narrow pit, and a few more stones lie near the front edge. At the upper right, a small wooden trestle and a long pole or tool handle lie on the ground beside the cut.
