Excavation at Soli with a hoe and stones

Description
A close view down into an excavation cut at Soli, its sandy soil face marked with the strokes of digging. A pick with a long handle lies across the lower right of the frame beside a rounded stone, and a dark hollow opens at the right edge. A few small dark spots mark the soil surface.
