Description

A group of about a dozen people stands and sits around the edge of an open trench at Oura, several of them holding shovels. Two wooden wheelbarrows stand at left beside a heap of loose earth. A man in a hat sits on a rock at right, another crouches in the trench at lower right, and pale rocks and bushes fill the background.
