Description

A narrow excavated trench with steep earth walls runs away from the camera. At the far end, a dark opening in the trench wall is filled with rounded and angular stones, some of them large, and a few pale pieces lie among them. The trench floor is smooth, lighter soil, and the walls show layered earth and small pebbles.
