Description

A large dressed stone block with a moulded lower edge sits in an excavated area at Vouni, with a thin, broken layer of crumbling material on its top. Behind it, a cut bank of earth shows the depth of the trench, and flat stone slabs run across the foreground and to the right. The photograph is taken from above at an angle.
