Description

A view straight down into an opening cut in the ground, with earth walls around it and a dark, deep chamber below. Pale, irregular patches near the upper part of the chamber may be stones, but they are hard to make out. The surrounding soil is loose and stony, and the photograph is taken from above the cut.
