Description

A crust of soil and small stones covers a mass of finds in a tomb chamber, and several dozen pale, rounded objects are set into it in a curving row. Dark timber and shadow fill the background at upper left and right. The objects are too encrusted to identify, and a dark, flattish lump lies in the lower centre.
