Description

A narrow excavation trench runs back between steep earth walls and ends at a tall, rough face of packed earth or mudbrick. Stones lie at the base of this face, and a dark recess sits in its upper part. Loose sand covers the floor of the trench in the foreground, with a pale curved object at the lower right edge.

Description, scan 2: Two young children stand side by side on a veranda with a patterned tiled floor, wearing light collared shirts, shorts, dark socks and shoes, and dark gloves. Behind them rise a stone balustrade and tall square columns, and at the left edge a pale building with a window is partly visible.
