Description

Close view of a rough, excavated soil face at Plakes, Lapithos. A row of pale, rounded stones runs across the upper part of the earth, with a cluster of larger stones at lower left. A dark cavity opens in the upper left corner, and the soil shows diagonal streaks and small pebbles throughout.
