Description

A rectangular cut in dry, stony ground is open, with a large rounded boulder sitting near its back wall. Loose stones and earth heaps surround the cut, and a single tree stands at the left beside a low stone wall. Terraced hills rise behind the site under a pale sky, and no people are visible.
